Plush ESC Timing

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version

I have over a dozen Plush ESCs of varying values. The instructions that come with them give timing values of: low, medium, and high. A number of motors, especially larger motors, specify timing in degrees. Does anyone know what the Plush ranges translate to in degrees?

	Think it has a lot to do with the number of magnets in any particular motor. The more magnets the higher the timing required. I saw a great article explaining all this when I first started out several years ago - sorry I can't find it now for you. Everything I use I set on medium timing. If I really wanted to chase ultimate high performance I would get out the rev counter and compare the high and low settings under load. I have read in these forums where people have tried all this and not noticed any great improvement or deterioration in performance.
