[NSRCA-discussion] Castle settings

[Atwood, Mark]

80amps is closer.   You’ll need High timing or custom set to 25.

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.

So just to add my experience. Check to see if logging is enabled on the ESC. If it is turn it off. I had a problem similar to this on this same esc and found out that logging on this esc drags it down.

Maybe I should let Mark Atwood speak for himself, but he's kinda busy right now...

Mark told me he tried everything he could think of and couldn't get a Pletty Advance to run full power on a Castle ESC. He recommended the Jetti or O.S.  I got the O.S. and it works fine.

V4.22, Low timing but is set on Outrunner Mode not 8khz…could that be it?  Not sure why but thought I had read that the Advance works best in this mode?
Will check if that fixes it as soon as I can.

What are the other settings?

Specifically check -
Software is 4.22, or higher
Low timing
8khz pwm

And.... All solder joints and connectors are healthy.

Possibly try reloading software...not likely to help, but it might.

I have an Edge 80 HV Esc, Plettenberg Advance motor. I usually need around 70-75 A to get good performance, but I can’t get more than 60A from this one. I’ve recalibrate the throttle (fixed end points) but no improvement. Wondering if there is some other setting causing this?

Thanks,

Dale
