I'm running the Spin 99 with AXI 5330 FAI and TP 5300's. I didn't like the 1second throttle and back that down to .3 sec. Linear throttle. I've played with timing and can't tell a huge difference...I'm between 23 and 25 degrees (24 default). I'm flying a DX7 so throttle curve isn't available. I just initialize the ESC with the throttle trim pulled back about 15 clicks, then click the trim up to near neutral. If you click it up far enough to actually start the motor, it will be a little too fast for "idle". but there is a range where the motor will continue to run once started by stick movenment just before it starts from trim movement where it idles well.

The only issue that I've had with the ESC is the "horrible noise after extended downline" that someone else mentioned. I'm guessing that it has something to do with the windmilling prop being driven faster than the esc can keep up with, but I'd sure like one of you smart guys to tell me what it is and how to fix it. I haven't used the brake, and perhaps that would prevent overspeeding.....?
