    A Castle Tech told me that we want to set the current limiting to
    "insensitive" to avoid any false cut outs caused my momentary
    voltage drops.&nbsp; Along with that, you should hard set the cell count
    via the min voltage to 30V for a 10S setup.&nbsp; This has worked for
    lots and lots of us for many years with the Castle controllers.<br>

              FWIW - I have the CC Ice HV 80 in an Integral, and the
              data logger<br>
              typically shows the temp rising to around 140-150F (60-80
              amp draw)<br>
              and hovering there for the entire flight.&nbsp; Castle tech
              support says<br>
              that their controllers don't start throttling back the
              juice until the<br>
              internal temp reaches over 200F.<br>
              <br>
              What I find interesting is that I have the same controller
              on my<br>
              Osiris (5S pack vs. 10S pack) pulling the same 80 amps,
              but the<br>
              controller temp only rises to about 90F on the Osiris.<br>
              <br>
              I haven't downloaded the data from Andersonville, but I
              didn't see any<br>
              power loss all weekend.&nbsp; I'm sure that if the system was
              going to<br>
              overtemp, it would have happened this last weekend.<br>

              &gt; Yes. My controller is mounted immediately behind the
              motor and in front of<br>
              &gt; the batteries. Air coming in the chin cowl flows over
              the controller and<br>
              &gt; batteries and then goes back out the exit which is
              two, 7” X 1” exit holes<br>
              &gt; in the bottom of the fuse right behind the wing tube.
              I also have two small<br>
              &gt; openings in my cheek cowls that are hopefully feeding
              the fan in the motor.<br>
              &gt; Some of the air from those is probably hitting the
              controller and batteries<br>
              &gt; as well.<br>

              &gt;&gt;&gt; Hey guys...I was out practicing tonight when
              the motor lost all power in<br>
              &gt;&gt;&gt; the first upline of the M. Landed the plane
              deadstick and could find nothing<br>
              &gt;&gt;&gt; diconnected so I thought the battery was
              somehow open circuit. Plugged in<br>
              &gt;&gt;&gt; another batt and the controller armed and ran
              the motor normally.<br>
              &gt;&gt;&gt; Re-installed the previous batt and again all
              was OK.&nbsp; I flew the plane on<br>
              &gt;&gt;&gt; the same battery the failure occured with and
              there were no re-occurences<br>
              &gt;&gt;&gt; but I was way too uncomfortable to really
              concentrate.<br>
              &gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
              &gt;&gt;&gt; It was 34C when I took off....the hottest I
              have ever flown that plane<br>
              &gt;&gt;&gt; and I did have the controller velcroed in
              place in the chin with foam under<br>
              &gt;&gt;&gt; it to prevent movement....not the coolest
              set-up.<br>
              &gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
              &gt;&gt;&gt; The plane is a Xigris, motor is the 30-10 evo
              and a Jeti 90 speed<br>
              &gt;&gt;&gt; controller, JR Rx.<br>
              &gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
              &gt;&gt;&gt; Any trouble shooting advice? Do the Jetis
              have a thermal shut down?<br>
              &gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
              &gt;&gt;&gt; I did change the speed controller mounting to
              use the three screws<br>
              &gt;&gt;&gt; instead of velcro.<br>
