[NSRCA-discussion] Castle settings

[Olstinske Dale]

I did have the logging off. Just ran the motor with 8 kHz, the current went up to 67 A, which is a 10% improvement. I do know I can get well over 80A with the Mezon ESC, although no need for that much. What should I  expect with the Castle? I am using a Falcon 21x13.5 prop, TP 5000 pack.
