So I just got my spanking new scorpion 130 all set up for v-bar gov. PC-link worked ok - but was "picky" on when it would want to communicate, I think com 3 worked better.
Anyway, my 2 main concerns are:
1. The motor doesn't start good. It doesn't have a delay start - but it just goes back and forth until the v-bar ramps up. Motor is align 700MX 530kv. I don't know if I should try playing with v-bar endpoints or what. They are at -100 +100. ESC: Timing 5, Motor accel delay .15, external gov mode. This testing is with blades off and it happens every single time from stop. Also simulating load on the head doesnt help either.
2. Now this is with blades off, but spool up sure seems fast for a 700. It's at 1900 in maybe 4 seconds even including the 2 or 3 seconds of motor jiggle..
Any help appreciated.
Thanks.
UPDATE:
Ok before I post, I just tried raising the vbar endpoints to -96, then -94, then -92. On these settings, the motor starts fine, -the first start only- any subsequent starts results in motor jiggle - regardless of the endpoint. It will only start ok if you unplug the battery. Again, spool up seems very fast. I have the bailout disabled.
RANT below, do not need to read
I'm kinda used to all or nothing style landings and I never had any problems doing autos on a 700 - I just don't do inverted autos and any type of trick auto, other than maybe sliding. I never ever land under power unless I absolutely have to, just something I started doing when I was a noob, and I realized its much easier and maybe safer.
