[NSRCA-discussion] Castle Phoenix 85HV help

[Ihncheol Park]

Dave,

 

That is the problem.  I don't get solid LED at all.  I tried from 40% to
over 100%  for the full throttle.  It beeps at around 70% then blinking
stops and LED turns off.  That is it.

It shouldn't matter where the throttle stick is positioned when the system
is turned on, aside from the ESC not actually arming until it has seen low
throttle.

 

If the LED is not solid at full throttle, then the try increasing the
throttle ATV percentage - with JR, it should be something less than 100%.

 

Regards,


Dave

Put your throttle at full before turning the Tx & Rx on and see if this
works. I remember seeing something about this at one time.

Jay,

 

I am on the soft cutoff with 2.11 firmware.   So far cut off never engaged
as the voltage never drop below 3.3v / cell.

A lot more setting variables available on 2.11.

Changed to fixed end suggested by Chris & Dave.

Messed with ATV, but still no solid LED at Full throttle.  

I started with Inspire 90 because it is one of the largest in class before
going to 2m in e-power.

I will still use OS140s that I have on some other planes as I still like the
glow.

I had a similar problem where mine would start to rev, then cutoff. Castle
to me to use the soft cutoff and it cured the problem.

Well, no luck on electric power setup?

 

I am using 85HV on Fliton Inspire 90 with E-Flite Power 110, 2 x TP
4S5000mAh packs for 8S.

 

Radio is JR X9303.  With auto-calibration for Throttle setting.  The ESC
doesn't get to full throttle with stick all the way up for more than 4
seconds specified in the manual.

 

ESC firm ware version is 1.55 right now.  There are several Beta versions,
but haven't tried one yet.

 

Is there some kind of incompatiblity between the 2.4Ghz & Castle?
