4 Turnigy ESC goes halfspeed.....

Ok.Henrik.
You have a
1-brake ATL switch brake lever travel limiter (check the position)
2-EPA check it
3-on ch2 center the trim
4-check if you have 70/30 or 50/50 travel to your trigger
5-ABS set off

Before all the above put a servo on ch2 (throttle) and see the travel

I will sure test this in the weekend.
The servo in ch2 i never thougt of :O)

Best regards Henrik

I'm having a similar problem with a SeaKing 180. I'm running Hyperion 4s and 5s and as soon as I go wot it dumps to 50%. I've reprogrammed the lvc to 3.0v from 3.4v and now back to normal run times but that's a change from the way the boat used to run. ????? I thinking of putting an external lvc in line and see if it's the SeaKing or the batts.

How are your batteriess?. They do have a lifespan. The cheaper the Pack, shorter life. I ran my Df 26 yesterday with the lvc set to 3.4v. My first run with brand new unused packs was fine. Last years packs kicked the lvc in pretty quick. I can run the old ones but I have to set the lvc down to 3.2 or 3.0

That's my guess anyways

Mi Amigos ! This has been discussed over and over again here on OSE. The Turnigy SC's (most notably the ever-so-popular T-180) has an overly ambitious LVC circuit which apparantly senses peak voltage downspikes rather than average voltage drop. Most all setups, particularly those with 1P and your average quality batteries will drop the voltage way below any setting on the LVC and you'll go prematurely into protection mode. Ditch the LVC settings & go to "no protection" and either watch your runtimes or get an outboard LVC. Stop playing with the built-in LVC; dropping the threshold won't work

Yes this does work i can attest several of my t180's i have had to do this..its annoying but it works and makes you happy after it does

I have a T120 that only had 50% throttle & set no lvc & all was good. A friend has a T180 with a 4082 - 1600kv on 6s & the lvc would cut in. He found that having the lvc on & setting the cells to 3s & not the 6s that he was using cured his problem & no more lvc cutting prematurly but still had the protection of the lvc. Dont know if this is the correct way to do this but he has not had any problems since & has run it quite a lot.

I just calibrate the throttle and the beaches.
