Richard,
I'm using straight line throttle curve on all my settings, and using throttle hold to start. I don’t have any problems with blades going out of phase, I use the slow start facility and get a really nice slow start up, and it probably takes about 10 to 15 seconds to spool, very realistic.
What version of firmware are you using?

Michael,

I am not sure what the version of the firmware I have, as I have have not updated it in about a year, so I do not know if there is a more current one or not! But, it is flying so good I hate to mess with it! It probably takes 10 seconds for mine to completely spool up!

Thanks for the replies; Richard, I don’t blame you for not wanting to change anything, why touch it if it’s not broke!!
Stan, looking forward to here the report on the cf blades.

There must be somebody out there that can tell me why I am getting so much difference in head speed between Gov High and Set RPM.

Finally !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I did finally take the time to mark and mount the new cf blades.... and the final note is: THEY WORK GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry I waited so long to give them a try.... even though they are symetrical, the added cord (almost 1/2" wider) took care of any lift that may have been lost...and I did not change my pitch or throttle settings....and no noticable change in run times or temps..
Definetly an upgrade!!!!!!
I would still like to see a set of the Hirobo blades and possibly give them a try too....I will have to look into those a bit later in the season.


Thanks, Stan
