Yeah, I cant get a good soft start with the Turnigy Tz85A ESC either. Some say to use governor mode, but I'm not sure. Nice vid. Was the new main shaft Align? or a new HK? Which motor? Typhoon 1800kv? Pinion size?
@Blaydrnnnr, the motor is a Turnigy Typhoon 500H - 1800kv with a 12T pinion. I would put an 11T if I could. I reduced the head speed. Main shaft was an HK shaft.
@gi1mo2 You running 6S batteries? I'm running 5S, with a 13T pinion gives me just about 2500 RPM's. ( 2488 average ) I have an 11T, but with 5S batteries, it would be too low of a headspeed. ( about 2100 average ) You can get the 11T from REVCo. 12T would give me around 2300 RPM's.
@Blaydrnnnr, Yes 6S 3000mAh with 12T. I had to reduce head speed on the transmitter. See my other video comparing HK500GT to my Trex 500 ESP. Trex is more responsive, aggressive... Can run faster head speed.
@gi1mo2 My HK is almost all Align now, head, tail, belt drive, main and auto gears and hub, its basically a Trex 500 with a clone frame..LOL. Thanks for the replies..With %s batteries, I'll be running a 13T. I'd like to keep it arounf 2500 RPMs. I dont have the plush, I have the other Turnigy ESC, the 85A. The soft start works better with the governor turned on for a 15 second spool up. Good vid, thanks again!
@gi1mo2 OK, Mine has been maidened. mine is the HK500CMT, but its 90% Align. head, tail, main and auto gears, belt drive, and swash. The 85A Turnigy needs to be used in governor mode to gat a good soft start. I'm running the 1800Kv with 5S batts and a 12T pinion. Very smooth, headspeed is about 2100. Might go to a 13T, the Align head can hold better head speeds...around 2400 would be just right.
