Hi all, I just set up a 18.46K on my logo 10 and I am not sure I did it right.

From what I understood from the manual in heli mode, you don't need to set up the stick travel : "In the FAI and heli programs the stick travel can not be configured by the user; i.e. the brake setting and full-throttle setting are both fixed"
So if I understand well without doing anything I get the maximum speed ?

What it is trying to say is that in Heli and FAI mode, the end points of the ESC's throttle travel or neither adjustable nor autocalibrating. In heli mode it is pretty easy to guarantee yourself that you can achieve full throttle by plugging in the battery pack with the throttle at 100%. The controller should do its little power up chime sequence and then double beep to indicate that it acknowledges the full throttle setting. It should then single beep when you bring the throttle to zero and is now armed.

Keep in mind that in heli mode you are not giving it a "throttle" input but rather a desired head speed input (governor setting). Now, if you tell it a head speed higher than physically possible with your motor/battery/gearing can achieve then it will simply hit 100% throttle and stay there.

Did I help any?
