BTW, Andrew is correct on the 3 degrees. The power difference over 0 degrees
is significant.

I ended up with a C50 Hacker and a Spin 99 in a test airplane I bought.  I'm
ending up with a lot of deadband at the lower end of throttle stick
movement.  Settings are as follows:

 

0 degrees advance (on Andrew Jesky's advice also tried 3 degrees with no
difference.)

8kHz

1.0 to 2.0 ms throttle range fixed

Acceleration 1 sec.

Linear throttle (tried expo with no difference)

Lipo 10s

3.0v per cell

Slow-down

 

Brake:

Deadtime 0.2s

Initial 30%

End 40%

Brake speed 0.5s

 

The ESC arms ok.  I raise the trim until the motor just starts, then back it
down until it just stops, and I end up with at least 1/4" of movement on the
throttle stick before the motor starts.  I've used outrunners and Pletty
Advances with both Castle and OS ESCs and never had this problem before.
Never had an inrunner before.  What am I missing?
