Hi guys,
Need some help. I just upgraded my CP Pro to the Brushless motor and ESC. I mounted the ESC on top of the 3-in-1, which is one of the suggested placements in the manual...
I started off slow, since it's a new upgrade. My problem is, that it will randomly jump up or down several feet. Very frustrating.
I'm thinking that ESC should be placed somewhere else and that I'm getting interference.. Another thought, is that it's also acting like a servo is going bad. All servos are about 8 or 9 months old. Hmmm, What should I do?
What's the best way to verify what my real problem is?
Thanks,
Dave / Choppersrule
Hey dave congrats on the brushless!
You are using the DX6 in this heli? Or the stock radio? I can't remember. And an external gyro?
If you have an external gyro I would say try a separate esc on the tail, cutting the 3-in-1 out of the system altogether, and then seeing if the thing still jumps around.
If you have no gyro and are depending on the mix and gain of the stock 3-in-1, I'd try relocating the bl esc to underneath, just temporarily, to see if your idea about the interference is right.
If you are using the stock radio and not the AR6000, then the esc lead could be picking up glitchness from the aether. I'd try the ferrite ring trick and keeping the leads as short as possible.
And is this the one with the HS55s? Very suspicious that this behaviour just started, I don't think its a servo, but that's just my first intuition.
Let's see, where did I put that extra 55? And will I need to reverse it...
