e-Electric Motors & Controllers > 35Ho controller - governor question...

I have my 35Ho working fine in non-governor mode and wonder if anyone is flying theirs in governor mode. If so....

1) Is it worth messing with?
2) How the heck to you set it up? The manual is quite lacking in this area.

Thanks,

Actually most people I know flies in governor mode. If you don't use it, it's like buying a Futaba GV1 but not using it.

It's pretty basic to setup. But the exact sequence will depend on the software version of your 35Ho. I recently had mine updated with latest software and setup sequence is drastically different.

Basically you just have to turn on the governor mode. Then you set your throttle curve to a flat line in idleup-1 on your radio. Start out at 80% all the way across and then work up or down to get the headspeed you like. Normal mode is 0-0-0-0-0, and you fly only in idleup-1.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the info, Stephen. Did you have to send your controller somewhere for the update? If so, where? How much was it?

I sent it back to Schulze in Germany via airmail. Got it back within a week and costs $20 for the software update. They also include a new instruction book for the new software.
