[NSRCA-discussion] Hacker ESC Programming

[Dean Pappas]

Hello Mike,
Isn't there a fixed throttle range mode on the Hacker? There is an adaptive mode for the Castle, but once I saw that I could put the Castle into a mode where idle/stop is the same pulse width every time, and wide-open-throttle is the same pulse width every time, I wouldn't operate any other way.
Dean

	I wasn't aware I had to throttle up to full power and hold that for 3-5
	seconds in order for the Hacker Acro 90 ESC to sense and set the high
	throttle point.  Perhaps some of you flying electrics also were not aware of
	that.  See following note from Hacker Brushless USA.
	
	"Dear Mike,
	    You do need to run the throttle up to full throttle after everything
	initializes. You only need to hold full throttle for about 3-5 seconds.
	
	
	Thank You,

	  Hi.  Have a question about using the programming box and setting high
	throttle with my Acro 90 Competition ESC.  When the ESC is set to auto
	sensing for both high and low throttle, I understand how the ESC initializes
	when first plugged in and establishes the low throttle setting point.
	However, how does it determine the maximum throttle pulse width coming from
	the transmitter?  Do you have to throttle up to full throttle and hold it
	there for some period of time for the ESC to recognize the full throttle
	setting?  I haven't found that information posted anywhere.  Thanks.
