[NSRCA-discussion] Idle down (brake engaged) oddity remains....

Temperature.

 

System is warmer after flight, idle drops.possibly to the point of engaging
the brake.  Bump up the low idle slightly and the problem will be solved.

I am still having some strange things happen with respect to the idle down
(brake engaged) function.  Before flight, when the idle down is switched off
(brake not engaged), the function works properly.  The motor is just barely
rotating.  After the landing sequence with brake on, I switch off the brake
to taxi back.  However, after landing, even with brake off, the ESC/motor
responds as if the brake is on.  Can anyone think of why it would behave
differently prior to takeoff and after landing?
