Default Motor acceleration lag

I'm experiencing a slow motor acceleration from idle to mid RPM. when throttle is advanced abruptly, it takes 2-3 seconds before motor reaches its commanded power.

Any idea if this can be fixed with ESC programming or maybe the transmitter?


Motor: Platenberg XTRA 30-10

ESC: YGE 90

Transmitter: JR XG14

Thanks,

Yoav

Your low speed needle valve is too rich...

I'd say he's a bit lean, if anything

Yoav, did you set your transmitter throttle end points? I forgot to do that with my XG14 and was low on power. I set up a pretty steep throttle curve so I don't know if I would have noticed it at lower RPM settings like you are.
