Was so impressed with running a govenor on my E550 that I bought a ICE 50 lite for the MiniTitan. Now I'm trying to figure out what head speed I want to run. I'm a sport flyer starting to get into inverted and other aerobatics. I run carbon blades, metal head and grips. Any suggestions?

Thanks, JC

2800-3000 rpm is plenty for what you are doing now

Thanks Fenderstat. I'll try that. I also put a new MiniTitan SE motor in. I just got all the soldering done and installed the motor and ESC. Just setting up the parameters now. I'll let you know how it goes.

Sorry for taking so long to respond. I absolutely love the govenor feature. You set it for 2800 and 3000 and the MiniTitan gets really responsive. It flys like its on a caffiene high.

My runtime has decreased due to running a higher rpm. The datalogger feature is really neat to see whats going on. RPM stays within a narrow band when flying hard, otherwise its rock steady. It was interesting to note the voltage change from running to stopped is about .2 to .3v difference.

The tail seems to hold better with the constant rpm when doing back,forward flips, quick climbs, etc.

I've noticed the motor runs cooler with the ICE.

I think the ICE 50 esc is well worth the money. Its even less weight than the ACE esc.
