Hello everybody. I have this esc and this frame. the motors ( 33GB-520) seem to run randomly. How should I set the esc? I have tried normal and brushed but they don’t go with logic. FC Omnibus F4 pro ardurover 4.0. Motor test work only if setting throttle to 100%
You have to set the ESC type to normal for this ESC. I see the ESC has a mode switch for independent/mixed mode. You will want to have that switch set for independent mode.
Thanks Sebastian, I tried switch in both positions. The results is that the motors test is in according with wiki, but the motors start moving only near to 100% of throttle. Why?
I never use the motor test feature. I just change the trim value in the servo output screen to see if the motors turn in the right direction and start at the same PWM value.
in this position they begin to turn but one forward and one backward. It seems to ignore the reverse flag. After a few seconds they stop and I have to go back to 1500 otherwise they won’t start anymore. If I set the trim to 1500 the esc beeps and I can restart the engine bringing the trim value back to around 1850. But is there a way to calibrate these escs? Thank you!
As I said, set it to “normal”.
I do not own this ESC, so I do not know if/how you can calibrate it.
I would not expect to much from a 5$ part.
“Reverse” takes effect after the FC is rebooted.
Perhaps it is some kind of safety feature, that causes ths motors to stop after the ESCs receive the same input for some time.
