what 's wrong with my scorpion

[nitros]

watch the video, i don't have clue what could be, i tough it was the esc but i just got it back from K
Scorpion motor issue - YouTube

My best guess would be the timing setting is wrong or maybe the ESC is not set to the correct number of poles for that motor.

i got a jive i don't know how to set the timing or the pole

Check out this video from Mr Mel for programming the jive

You don't need to change any timing or any settings on a Jive.

What you do need to do is have the normal flight load on it the first time you spool up any time after you change the modes to mode 1 or 4 and with the initial set-up.

ESC's hate having to run motors with no loads attached.

Reset your Jive to mode 1 and then to mode 4 or I think the other heli one is 11, stick the blades on and spool up to your desired headspeed at mid pitch. If the motor spins the wrong way swap two of the three leads around.


It's the way Jive's work - they learn the auto timing etc on first spool up as well.

Watch you mean mid pitch? TH, put the stick in the middle and switch off the hold?

Yeah that's a good way of doing it. Make sure you have it in the flight mode you use more often (a flat curve is best for throttle out).

George on HF told me to move the motor wire from the side of the esc, this should solve the issue. But I don't understand how?
