Transmitter's output range to match the EDGE's totally arbitrary fixed endpoints. The procedure outlined in your link is meant to calibrate your But this is how I fixed the problem (I used a Servo tester to drive the ESC for the calibration, the tester reads-out the exact pulse width as I turn the knob, it was way easier than a TX).Īs I stated above, this does not work, because the flight controller always uses 1000-2000uS Then you need to follow these instructions. Then you need to connect the ESC directly to an RX channel with the TX set up for 1000-2000µS like your Vector will use.

From the Castle site: "Fully programmable Castle feature set using Castle Link USB adapter (coupon for free Castle Link USB adapter included in package) and freely downloadable Castle Link Windows software." You need the Castle Link adapter and software. Re-power, re-launch, sometimes 2-3 times before it's right. I really need to force it to be correct, I usually can't. I *think* I've seen it change on the fly, but when Like 5-10 seconds? I can't figure it out. To 100% for it to record the max calibration? Does it have to run at 100% for some long time Is there some specific window of time after power up, in which I *must* run the throttle up Instead, suddenly the cruise throttle is way too high, and climb throttle is *full power*. I might set it up with cruise throttle at 1550uS (little over half) and climb at 1750uS (about 75%),Īnd that works with calibration recorded to be 0-100%, but when it randomly calibrates to 0-60% This really screws things up with the flight controller which hasįixed output values to handle cruise and climb and so forth. This means half throttle isģ0%, and so forth. I do drive the throttle stick to 100% throttle at, or before *every* launch, yet sometimes it appears The problem is, I can't get the auto calibration option to work reliably either. My flight controller always outputs throttle values between 1000uS to 2000uS (0-100%) so

Why they pulled it in so far from the normal full range endpoints I have Fixed calibration, where the min and max are some arbitrary values that work out to To 100% throttle some time before launch.Ģ. It figures out max throttle endpoint based on the assumption that I will go Two choices in Castle Link (it's not even in the manual) is I have two choices.ġ. Of course the ICE had other issues and was replaced with the EDGE series.Īs far as I can tell, the EDGE did away with this calibration option. Range pretty much until I updated the firmware, months later. It would keep that throttle calibration \ To zero, it would arm, and calibration was complete. Power up plane/ESC with the throttle stick at 100%, wait for the tones, drop it This is on a fixed wing FPV aircraft with a ET Vector flight controller.īack in the days of the Phoenix ICE, I could calibrate the throttle the way most otherĮSCs do it.
