Is there some special problem with the JR that's different from other radios? I use a Futaba 7 with the motor on the retract channel (5), and it's fairly straightforward. It did need a bit of tuning, because I found that on the Futaba, the travel on channel 5 is much greater than the other channels, based on checking servo rotation. 100% ATV seemed to confuse the ESC (Phoenix 80) and sometimes it would not start. Dialing back to 90% cured the problem, and the full throttle light is on.
Also, if you have a powerful system, consider programming in soft start and soft brake, if your ESC has these capabilities. Less stress on the gearbox. > > From: "Dave & Sue Moore" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: 2004/03/15 Mon AM 02:25:31 EST > To: "RCSE" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: [RCSE] Programming Help > > Pat, > > When you find out, let us all know.
