Motor/ESC Question
Started with Hobbico Superstar - Futaba radio and receiver, stock motor, esc, etc... Pulled out the receiver and put in the Easy Star with Pixie 20 Amp speed controller. Motor responded to throttle exactly as it should. Eventually, the speed controller fried, so I pulled out the original speed controller from the Hobbico. So now I have the same radio, esc, and receiver combination as the original, only difference is the motor is the Easy Star motor. Full throttle runs the motor at full speed. But it takes about 15 clicks for the motor to come on. Is this a calibration issue, or maybe a voltage cutoff issue? I'm confused since the radio/receiver/esc is all the same as original.
