Hi Gang,

Is anyone our there using the Jeti Spin ESC yet? If so, what settings do you use?

We tried Heli "3D" mode, but it did not work well (difficult to set PRM level). I don't mind experimenting, but it would be much easier to stand on the shoulders of one who has "been there, done that". ;-)

TIA for your help.

Regards, 

Hi Igor,

Thanks for your info.

Are you using the 3D Heli mode? Or are you using Heli high mode? Or?

TIA

Hi Egor,

Thanks again. :-) I'm glad to hear the 3D mode works well for you. That tells us the mode is not our problem. The 3D is what we wanted to use for obvious reasons.

My friend is not able to get more than 8600 RPM on an 11 x 6 APC prop. This gives lap times of only 5.3 sec/lap. He would like to get down to 5.0, this would take an RPM of around 9,150 RPM. My guess is that some setting in the Spin ESC is holding back the RPM.

I assume that you are just setting your timer at 100% so you have a full range with the ESC controlling the speed?

I don't have my unit in a plane yet, so I am trying to solve this for a friend a few thousand miles away.  I'll try to get mine in a plane soon so I can try some changes myself.

Hi Igor,

I'm sorry, I should have mentioned: This same motor ran fine in this same plane before. The only change made was going to the Jeti Spin ESC (he used the Castle ESC before with no problems).

Rudy,
I think Igor's right. Put on a small prop and see if in 3d mode it can hit the  target rpm. Maybe (for some reason) you are out of range in the 3D mode (like the high and low governor modes on the CC).
