Thank you for taking the time to post. HUGE help!

Thanks for the explanation. The youtubers nowadays are concentrated in other developments and these videos will always be needed for those new to the hobby.

Brilliant tutorial/review! Clarified more than a couple details I had questions about since starting this hobby last year.

Extremely good video! Thanks a lot, saved me waiting for days for shipping an esc card just to get my folding prop to work.

you are a life saver. i was looking for a way to stop my motors from spinning, everyone was saying that its only possible with a special esc. mine work perfectly

Thank you. Your information has helped me more than once and you always provide clear and detailed instructions.

Thanks ESC programming has been a challenge for me, especially with the radio. Finally purchased the card which is great. I have several that do not work with my card ,so next step for me is to standardize to one manufacturer. Thanks again for the informative video.

Hi Andrew, Great video. Visual demonstrations are the best.

Your videos are great, so much useful information with excellent demonstration. Cheers!

Amazing advice delivered in a simple understandable way. Thanks again.

Hey Andrew! I have a question for you.... Do you still build planes from scratch? I am just about to try to build a proper wire cutter as I think depron wings are a bit limiting. But I've noticed that you don't seem to be building anymore. Is it that you just can't make the perfect plane and the manufactured ones do it better? Thanks for all your amazing content, I can't tell you how many videos of yours I've watched and how many are part of my essential watch lists. All the best.

I have a brandless 40A ESC. I connected my motor and ESC to a Speedybee F405 Wing flight controller. At first everything seemed fine but somehow I seemed to have messed up the ESC programming(?) When I arm the model and turn throttle on, it turns on. But even for a very low throttle, the moment I input a left aileron stick command, the motor stops spinning. I have triple checked all connections. It isn't an overcurrent issue either since I connected a Wattmeter and verified that the current draw is within ESC range (max current is 13 Amps). I can't think of anything else other than the ESC accidentally being wrongly programmed. I am running INAV 7.0 in my FC. Please do let me know if you have any idea why this might be happening. Thanks in advance.

Did you have differential thrust in the mixer? Unlikely to be the ESC, more likely the INAV setup or radio mixing

@prateekshrestha9824

4 ай бұрын

@@AndrewNewton SOLVED! It was INAV setup indeed. Apparently, I had set up channel 5 as channel 1's slave in my FlySky FS-i6X transmitter during direct manual flight using ESC directly connected to the battery. When I later connected the FC, I had assigned channel 5 in INAV to arm the model as well. That caused the FC to think that I was trying to disarm every time I gave a left aileron stick command because the bracket in the Arm channel in INAV mode for arming interfered with the aileron stick command. I simply had to assign arming to a different channel (I now have channel 6 for arming), and this mysterious throttle cut is now gone. But anyway, thanks for your reply. I enjoy watching your videos and learning from your experiences! :)

If you are running inav, I assume setting the throttle from between 1000 and 2000 and setting motor stop does the same and you don't need to calibrate the ESC?

@DeanoGoogleo

Thanks Andrew, come to think of it, I believe you can do it from the motors tab in inav by connecting via usb then turning master motor control to 100% and then powering the ESC and reducing power to 0. So same as with the transmitter I guess but that calibrates it to the inav top and bottom settings. Maidening the fx-61 tomorrow so I want it right.

Depends on the ESC protocol you're running. If it is digital, (DShot), then you don't need to calibrate it.

@AndrewNewton

For gliders and belly landers it's essential. Folding props need to stop spinning to fold back, and a spinning prop creates more drag. Also for belly landers, a spinning prop has much greater change of breaking when it touches the ground.

If it's BetaFlight I have no idea

Following your example, I bought a programming card and now only buy Turnigy Plush. However, having just installed a 30amp one in a new glider, the prop absolutely refuses to stop spinning. I’ve programmed it twice, to 100%, I’ve even tried an increasing number of rubber bands. All to no avail. 🤬 Clearly, the esc is not braking the prop. Just a’wundrin’ if you have any suggestions. Until I fix this issue the glider is a duckling, as the torque from the feathering prop spin is tipping the model hard right!
