Century Bell 222 with Trex 600E
I have heard you need to lower the blade speed. What is the best way to do this? With pitch and throttle curve or a lower tooth pinion? If so, where to buy the pinion?Thanks for the help, Mike

RE: Century Bell 222 with Trex 600E
On my scale ships, I try to get the head speed down around 1500 to 1600. You may be able to do this by running your ESC at 80%, but I do not like running them at less then that because then they become less efficient (the other 20% is disipated in heat).
If you cannot get it that low with an 80% esc setting, then go to a lower count pinion, or a motor with a lower KV rating or a lower voltage battery pack or a combination of all three.
