Default RE: setting idle on electric model

Hi Jim,

I has similar results trying to set a fixed low point. I emailed Jeti and their response was:

For low stick position it is necessary to set longer impuls - if you measure 1.095, set 1.12 - 1.15
There are some differencies due to mechanical construction of sticks and temperature.
For high stick position set shorter impulse - 1.90 or 1.85
Thanks Scott,

I reset the fixed low end to 1.1 and now it arms every time. However, it doesn't actually start until some higher value. I suspect the clock in the Jeti is not accurate but it doesn't matter as long as everything works. The Spin 99 does not start as smoothly as the Hacker/Jeti 90 and seems to have a lot of hysteresis between start and idle. In other words after it starts you must back off for a slower idle. Once set, you can almost see the blades.
