kontronik & goblin question/problem

[Ross Northcott]

On my goblin i'm running the pyro 520 motor with the standard pinion and 80hv kontronik esc, i maidened it today and to get the headspeed at 2190 at 55% throttle and 2100 @ 47%, this not what it should be, i'm running a 20t pinion onto the main gear, accoding to mr mels headspeed calc it shouls be not what i have, any ideas whats gone wrong, but boy does t fly nice even at these low throttle curves.

Is the gearing of the belt 1 to 1 if not you need to factor that in.

When you say calibrated, i always reset the esc mode 1 then programme in mode 11, what do you mean calibrated?

Watch the vid Mr Mell explains who to match the throws on your throtttle stick the the esc, if you haven't done that then you will never get the HS correct

[sacko]

When you calibrate, you set the endpoints.

That 55 is more like 77'ish.

MrMel has done a good vid on it, pretty much the same as setting up a Castle.

[Ross Northcott]

so basically as long as i tach the headspeed, it will be fine?

[Johnda]

Watch the Vid, skip to 5:40

[heathy]

You @ the club Sat ?

[sacko]

Yes, but the above values aren't 'true values', as it hasn't been calibrated.

[Ross Northcott]

You @ the club Sat ?

Yeah mate you?

[heathy]

Yeah mate you?

Yep, should be there for 1ish, see you there. Just make sure that goblin has a brown paper bag over its head, lol...

If your using spectrum Ross your throttle endpoints should be around 82% high and low once calibrated with an 80hv
