Of course it works. The true inromation is that Spin non PRO works better. The point is that Spin PRO does not contain regime tuned for CL called Heli3D. Psin pro did trade, regimes for telemetry (which we do not use). So in PRO version we lost that tuned part of firmware. That all means that spin pro is suboptimal FOR C/L USE not only for my timer. And since I do not see reason to pay expensive equipment which does not work in its best parameters, I do not recomment usage of slower ESC. That is all.

And why speed of regulation matters? We know it also from IC, just imagine loop. If it brakes later, it can happen it will brake up hill and accelerate down hill. If it accelerate down hill, it will not have force to brake on bottoms in strong wind. Spin pro is 0,1 to 0,2s slower, that is what experienced flyer feels as discomfort in wind. At least I did  ;D

Chris Burkhardt:
 Thanks Igor!  Looks like the ESC is not supplying power to the timer.

Chris Burkhardt:
I talked with the Jeti USA representative.  Unfortunately, I burned out the BEC circuit on my ESC when I hooked it and a power supply up to the Jeti Box.  I'll just need to use this on a twin engine plane, or use a separate 5v power supply to the timer.  I do like the idea of designing a semi scale airplane; maybe the BOAC version of the Dehavilland Mosquito or the Cessna 340.

On another note, in researching these things, I looked at the Max Bee design yet again.  It looks very straight forward from a construction standpoint.  Does the control system have the same geometry as that published in the Stunt News articles?

dc stunt:
Pro has two wires that come out of esc unlike spin. Make sure u hook up the right one to timer.
I forgot which one, either red or the black. One is for telemetry and one is for power signal.

Chris Burkhardt:
thanks DV
