My Posts This: Topic Forum | I got around to playing with the Heli with the Kontronics today (been flying my Nitros more lately). Some things seemed to work and others seemed not too; but can't fully tell.
When I followed the sequence:
| Quote |
| 1. Connect the Power Jazz to the ProgrCARD
2. Connect the ProgrCARD to the correct channel in the receiver
3. connect the receiver battery to the receiver
4. connect the main battery to the controller
|
... it didn't work. The only difference is that I'm using a Jive+HV. When I did step 3, the ProgCard flashed once and went off to indicate the LEDs work, but when I plugged in the Main Battery to the Controller, nothing!
What did seem to work was:
1. Connect the Jive+HV to the ProgrCARD (ESC terminal)
2. Connect the ProgCARD to the correct channel in the receiver (Battery terminal)
3. Connect the main battery to the controller
4. connect the receiver battery to the receiver
Then I happily start programming the Kontronics; but (there's always a 'but' , when I get to the Zero and Full Throttle setting, it seemed to work because the ProgCARD did not shut off, but the LEDs for those functions did not stay on. Is this correct?
I ask this because when I bench test the throttle by spooling up with no load (took the entire head off), there is increase in motor speed up to 60% throttle. After 60% throttle, there is no increase. Is it because there is no load?
Thanks again for your help. |
