Basic ESC Setup
1 Attachment(s)
I am setting up my Caldera 10E. I'm using a LiPo battery.
Can anyone give me the rundown on where to set each of the following: 1. Running Mode: Forward Only with Brake Forward/Reverse with Brake Forward and Reverse 2. Drag Brake Force 0% 5% 10% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% 3. Cut-Off Threshold No Protection 2.6v/Cell 2.8v/Cell 3.0v/Cell 3.2v/Cell 3.4v/Cell 4. Start Mode Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Level 4 Level 5 Level 6 Level 7 Level 8 Level 9 5. Brake Force 25% 50% 75% 100% 6. Reverse Force 25% 50% 75% 100% 7. Initial Brake Force Drag Brake Force 0% 20% 40% 8. Neutral Range 6% 9% 12% I don't think 9-10 apply to electric trucks. 11, I can figure out on my own and 12 I'll put at 2 Cells. |

Neutral Range 6% 9% 12% I don't think 9-10 apply to electric trucks. 11, I can figure out on my own and 12 I'll put at 2 Cells. here is what i would set it at: 1) 2 2) 2(this applies slight braking when you let the off the throttle, but have not yet applied any brake) 3) 5 4) 1 (softest setting. will save drivetrain) 5) 2 or 3. depends on how strong you want the brakes. 6) 2 is good. thats plenty of speed in reverse 7) 2 or 3. again, depends on how strong you want the brakes to be. 8) 2 is my fav. this one adjust how much trigger play there is between neutral and gas/brake i forget which one is for motor timing. leave that one alone. the stock setting is best IMO. on the lipo setting, i leave mine in "auto detect # cells" but sometimes i run a 3s. if you only plan to run 2s then that setting will do. hope that helps. |
RE: Basic ESC Setup
I've been wondering what people tend to set theirs up at also, so nice post.
Also, what is the difference btw the version 2 and version 1 ESC 35A. I've been looking at getting a programmer card, but they seem to say for version 2 on the EzRun, and my ESC is version 1.1 (even though I just got the Caldera 10e a few weeks ago). Will the ver 2 still work on mine? |
