I tried the logrithmic curve on the Spin 99/DualSky combination and at first thought it was worse as far as rough startup. However I can see if you start it aggressively it will always start in the right direction so it might work better for geared motors. Then I tried the exponential curve. It is the softest start of all but will start in the wrong direction some of the time. However it has by far the best idle and smoothness coming off of idle. I had it running at 200 rpm. Almost as good as my new ceiling fan. I don't know what that curve looks like so I guess I'll have to map it if I get a tachometer working.

I tried to fly with the expo curve today and knew I was in trouble when it took 1/3 throttle to taxi out. The flight was terrible. It was like flying a two stroke with no mid range power. I might be able to compensate for it with the throttle curve in the transmitter but didn't try today. The idle was great and I only used 2694 mAh for the Master's sequence but it is not the way to go.
I went back to linear on the next flight and thought I heard a couple of cutouts during the flight. On the third flight I heard something on the bottom of the Figure M that sounded like something broke. I throttled back and landed okay but it looks like there is still something wrong with the Spin 99s. Is there any success stories with the Spin 75? I really like the data logging feature on the Spins.
