Status: offline 		Hi, I was helping a friend of mine to set his brand new Hacker 13XL, but its start of it is very hard, and even sometimes the propeller turns backwards half a turn before it runs normally. It has the new MasterSpin 99 which I'm not familiar with, because I have a Master Acro 90 with a Hacker 14XL. Almost all settings are programed as my Acro 90, but there is an option to set number of poles (6 is default). Does anybody know if this setting has to be programed for the Hacer 13XL, and if so which is the correct setting? Thanks. If anybody has the complete set of correct (or best) settings for 13XL and 14XL would be great also.

I asked Jeti this question specific to a Hacker A60 outrunner:

for outrunners we recommend timing between 20 and 30 degree.
The higher timing you use, you have higher RPM and current too.

Status: offline 		I tried the Jeti Spin 99 on my Hacker C50 and was not happy with how it starts. Just like you describe. I'm hoping it will be okay on my outrunner. It seemed fine during bench testing.
Let us know if you get it working on the C50.

From the Hacker website:

We recommend the Hacker Master Series Controllers for use with the C50 Series Motors

I am about to run my new Hacker 14 XL Acro with Spin 99 controler. Has any one managed to sort the problem out as previously identified.

Status: offline 		Hi Burt. we just checked a 14XL and a 13XL with MasterSpin 99 and now both are working fine. We just put the ESC curve to exponential setting, this allows a smoother start, and when you want to start it, do it without hesitation, then throtle back to your desired idle RPMs (as low as you want). With these few tips my friends achieved a satisfactory perfomance on the controler and motor. I hope it helps.

Thanks, this is how I was using my Acro 90 controller so had no problem with the Spin.

Status: offline 		Anyone care to share/list their settings for the Masterspin 99 and C50 13XL Comp?

I am particularly interested in the setting for Acceleration. Default is 1S. The higher the setting the softer. from what I was told. I experimented on the ground with 2S. Seemed OK, but I just don't have the experience to really know if it is right and proper. The instruction recommend like 2S for larger props and 5S or more for helicpoters.

Has anyone set up the braking feature on the Masterspin 99 and tried it?
