[NSRCA-discussion] Hacker ESC Programming

[Stuart Chale]

Makes sense but how do you know that you are at max throttle with the pulse
width setting?  Is 2.0 ms equivalent to 100% travel on Futaba and JR?  Not
sure about JR but I do not see a way to read pulse width on Futaba.

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.

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,

  Subject: [POSSIBLE SPAM] Acro 90 ESC Programming Question


  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.
