CC 80HV vs Jeti 77 (not Spin) performance?
Quick question for the CC experts out there. I recently started flying a CC 80HV ESC with a Himax 210. I had been flying the same motor in another plane with a Jeti 77 (not Spin) ESC. I know the throttle response is different between the two ESCs and have adjusted my throttle curve with the CC to feel the same as my Jeti. I also made sure I was getting full throttle on the CC esc. Using fixed endpoints and the setup listed below.
However, I since I started flying the new plane, it seemed I was down on power a little bit. I also know my new plane (Spark Evo) has more drag than my Integral so I attributed the feeling of less power to that. However, it continued to bug me so today I tested the CC 80HV setup with a freshly charged battery, then recharged the battery to top it off and swapped out the CC for my old Jeti. I used a Watts-Up meter and hand held tach on both so no difference in measuring tools. Jeti controller turned the MPI 20.5x14.5 150 rpm more and also pulled 5 more amps. Obviously watts are up about 200 with the Jeti also according to the Watts-Up meter.
Any ideas why the rpm/watts are down on the CC 80HV? Any of the settings below affect top end performance?
thanks
