  • Castle 120hv acceptable head speed range

    Is it feasible to run a castle 120 at head speed in the range of 1600-1750rpm Using 450kv motor and gear ratio of 9.64 on 12s set up?

    I don't have the esc yet so can't put the numbers in the software to check.

    In my head the figures below seem ok but am not sure if I am correct.

    44.4 x 450kv x 0.9 = 17982rpm

    17982/9.64 = 1865rpm @100%

    (1600/1865) x100 = ~86%

    (1750/2073) x 100 = ~94%

    Run the software, choose esc type from the drop down menu.

    It will then run in demo mode and you can punch motor / pinion details and see if your head speeds fall within acceptable ranges.
    Current fleet: Goblin Thunder Sport (700), Trex 700L, Logo 600, Specter 700, Henseleit TDR, V-Baaa control.
    Next heli: I have pretty much everything I want. Maybe I'll upgrade some electronics or something.
