[NSRCA-discussion] Need a little help with ICE HV80 setup

In a new E-motion I've got a Pletty Xtra 30-10, ICE HV 80, 20.5x14 PT models CF 
prop.  The problem I have is that I have it set on the ground for about 65 amps 
WOT.  According to the logger I'm exceeding 100 amps in the air and triggering 
the current cutoff.  I can hear the cutoff operate in the air.  But I do not get 
an error code.  Firmware is the latest.  Settings.are below.  


Should I just expect peaks over 100 amps? and set the current limiting to 
insensitive?  Or is there something else I need to look for?  Also, although PWM 
is set to 8 KHz, I also tried OUTRUNNER and got pretty much the same result, a 
little less hitting the cutoff.

thanks,

Ed
