e-Gaui Hurricane 200 & 550 - EP100 > Soft Start

How do I get a soft start on my Hurricane 550 with KV850 motor?

Ihave Spektrum DX 7 radio and the ESC is the Gaui 50 amp supplied in the kit.

Every time I go to fly the heli jumps like a startled rabbit and often the supplied carbon blades go at right angles to where they should be and I think they will have a boom strike.

My throttle hold is set at -20%

Hi,

You can try Govenor mode on the ESC. It has softer startup.

Hi krakerjak, if you are using the stock one in the kit, im pretty sure you can program the speedie to give ya the soft start. I was in at Tobys the other day to do a couple of them.
The instructions arent the clearest, but if ya have a friend with a trex, maybe they could have a look at showing you how they program the Align speedies, which work in a similar way.
I cant remember the number of beeps, for the two steps ya take, but they will be on the speedie foldout instructions.
Startout with throttle to the top,then connect the heli battery, wait for the speedie to inicate its in program mode, let it cycle through its sequence of beeps till it gets to the start options, then pull the throttle to the bottom, wait for it to cycle through the startup options till ya get to (i think its number two for medium, and 3beeps for super soft)the beeps ya need, then push the throttle stick back up to full. The speedie should then beep out the new setting. Pull throttle to bottom and disconect the battery at the heli.
Now hopefully you should have the softer start.
Im also in Perth, if ya have any dramas, pop me a PM.
Cheers CHRIS.
