SEttings to Ice LIte for Eflite 32
« on: December 03, 2015, 05:41:37 PM »
Dear Sirs

I want to use in my Legacy the Eflite 32 and Ice lite 50

I would like the better settind to this esc , I will use Will Hubin timer

I´m testind with a very good motor KDA 38-xl , 1000 kV but as Eric told me was to big plane to this plane .

But I try , and worked but is not the right motor for this size plane (Eric tell me this a lot of times)

Now I have :
Will Hibin timer  FM-9
Battery  5S 2700 25 C
Motor Eflite 32
Prop : APC pusher prop 13x4 or normal 12x6

When I was testing my flight had a small lap time variations , one friend tell me that could be  the ESC setting

So this is why I'm asking for help

thank you

Guil

I would suggest that if you haven't already done so, follow Norm Whittle's excellent tutorial  in this forum. His recommended settings are a great starting point.

I flew , quite extensively (and trouble free), a 66 ounce SV-11 on 64' of line. The new owner has similar success.

 Two things I notice with your setup. The Ice Lite 50 will be marginal with an E-Flight 32. I used a Phoenix 45 because it can take a 60AMP spike. The Ice Lite 50 isn't rated that high. Unfortunately, Castle Creations discontinued the Phoenix 45, so my guess is that you'll have to step up to something in their newer 75 series.  There is an additional weight penalty of about one ounce.
I  first used  a 4S 3900 pack and later switched to a 5S 3300 . You mentioned that you run a 5S 2700 pack which, in my experience, is rather small for the job. I doubt that you would be treating that pack well if you exceed  4 minutes as the Power 32 is a "big block" and consumes a lot of battery. You want at least a 5:45 minute flight from the time of spool up and ideally, you  should land with the battery showing somewhere between 20-25% left.
 Below that, you are looking to shorten the life of your lipo.
Good luck.

Norm's "Cookbook" is at the top of the AMPs Up section.

I would start with the 13 x 4.5. electric pusher prop.
Aim for a  5.3 second lap time.
Good Luck,
Frank
