I was out flying today and pluged the batt in for the 3rd flight and no beeps. I have power to rx but nothing to the motor. I'm running the 1600 scorpion so I tried the stock motor and still nothing. Any one else have this happen to them?

Thanks,
Pete

Try lowering your travel to 115 on the low end...

Tried moving travel and stick is at low position. I'm going to ask the lhs where I got it if they can do anything for me. Good reason to get a jazz

It's actually a smaller esc (up to 6s and the 55 takes up to 10s), is $40 cheaper, and has bec.

If your going to stick with 6S or below the Jazz 80 is the choice over the 55. The 55 will cost you $40 more for just the ESC. Potentially $60 to $80 more depending on BEC chosen. Then you have another component to mount and more wires.

So... if you staying 6S or less, the 55 is the one that is overkill. If you plan on going higher than 6S its the obvious choice, or one of the new Kontronik Jives if they are available.

I would try reprogramming the ESC first before I bought something else.

Try not to limit yourself to 6S the 8S 2200ma is a great setup. If you get the 80 you will never be able to go to 8S in the future.

Tried reprograming, moved travel adjustments, And stick is at low. These are all the first things I did. I have no intention on going 8s in the future, I think 6s is the biggets batts I will own. Anything bigger and its going to be nitro. Thanks again for all the input, but no one else has had this happen to their esc?

Just an idea... but have you confirmed throttle hold is not enabled by accident.

Yeah I checked the hold too. It just sucks I was going to upgrade my gyro but now it going to be a esc. I've always wanted a jazz too so I guess it's not to bad. Will the jazz improve performance, power, or anything else?
