I see the questions about programming all through this thread but don't see an answer. In addition I wonder if the bec can be bypassed so I can use another. I need more amps.
  Reply:  William (163 points);
The onboard bec can always be disabled. Just pull/cut the power wire/red that comes from the esc and goes to your RX.

I want to use in his new plane *******big-scale-fly****/forum/index.php/topic,130.0.html
I conclude with his design and will soon begin to collect the first two samples.

I put the engine TGY AerodriveXp SK Series 50-65 380Kv / 1820w

Servo for rudder HS5625
Servo handlebar height 5245 - 2 pieces
Servo on ailerons 5245 - 2 pieces

Batteries Rhino 3700mAh 6S 22.2v 20C Lipoly Pack

Whether or not this control to ensure all the good punches?

I am ready to become a beta tester of the regulator and put it on their planes if you guarantee a hundred he will provide all the servo power.

If the quality control on the electronics is as good as the english on the case then good luck! (5-18N iMH)

4A SBEC is very little you need At least 6A
Michael (50 points) 10/30/2009
Is this programmable by the Turnigy programming card? Is timing/start/cutoff mode selectable?

Can you tell me what SBEC means? I know what is BEC but what is that S?
  Reply:  Eagle (155 points);
SBEC.. it meens SWITCHED BEC... !
Its the different to LINEAR BEC.
  Reply:  Jan (8 points);
And what is switched BEC where is the difference
  Reply:  Quix-fz (17 points);
instead of wasting the voltage-difference (from the lipo battery to 5volts) as heat (imagine a self-adjusting resistor), it pulses (switching) the lipo-battery voltage, so after "smoothing" with coils and capacitors, you get nice clean and efficent 5 volts. is a must with many lipo-cells ( more than 2s-3s)

Give comments soon, I need 1 like that.
Klaus Lange (181 points) 10/22/2009
Ok. I am looking for beta-testers for this ESC. After the K-Force desaster, that is bad design by Hobbywind and bad service by Hobbykng support, I will definitely not available for doing the tests.

Btw, 5.5V BEC??!! Too high for 4.8V systems, too low for 6V systems. The only reason for 5.5V is (5+6)/2=5.5. Hopefully, the rest of the design criteria were choosen well.

Ultra fast bla-bla-bla... Sorry, I understand why to do promotion. But to judge if the ESC is usable at least a few more date would be fine.

For the moment, I will stay with my old reliable plush ESCs or I will spend my money with CCs, Kontros or other well specified and designed controllers.

My best wishes,
Klaus Lange
  Reply:  Tadango (120 points);
Send them to me, i will test them for you :) Eve a plush can selfdestruct although very unlikely..... Kontronik is also not perfect. Jazz 55 should support 6s but try 6s and it will shutdown, many people have had that problem. 5s will run fine even at high amps.

So, where can i email my address :)
  Reply:  Jason5001 (1124 points);
Klaus, youre requesting more data and then say "blah blah" to the type of MCU and mosFET. Im betting the house most other brands wont easily admit to the specification of their FET's.

We will try and get more data for you.
  Reply:  Klaus Lange (181 points);
Fast: 10,20,40...kHz? BEC:4A cont. or? Soft start capabilities?

Dear Tadango,

you are right, there are always problems to be expected with non space proofed electronics. My statistics for the last 3 years:

4 Plush 60A, 6 Plush 40A: no problems.
Phoenix 2x100A, 2x60A, 3x45A, 1x35A, 2x25A: no problems.
Kontronics: very few problems in our club (more than 100 ESCs) but very good support by producer.
K-Force 60A: 1 burned, 2 further becomes very hot without load (BEC-FET), both were always switching off after short time (6S, 250W for hovering).
K-Force 40A: 1 perfect in a TR450 with T2836-3700kV. A second one tried with same setup: motor off from time to time... (nothing special when logging with elogger v3).

**********************-

I would realy hope to get a reasonable good ESC with the new Turnigy series. But, I do have my doubts...
  Reply:  Klaus Lange (181 points);
Hi Jason.

Please forget the bla-bla and other unserious comments. Fact is that there are a lot of very good products at Hobbyking in general for very good prices. Fact is that I was able to write a lot of corresponding good reviews for these products. Another fact is that there are some problems with some of your new HK- or Turnigy-branded products. And finally, it is a fact that I wrote quite a lot emails concerning these general product problems and at the end the answers were not really helpful at all.

Therefore, it would be fine to get some more serious data for the new ESC series. And new customers should be aware about possible problems with a new product. For me it would be fine, if I could rely on your support if general problems occur with a new product.
  Reply:  Jason5001 (1124 points);
Hi Klaus. I checked the Castle Creations website and their "data" is about the same as ours. They don't give much detail at all, just max currents, battery sizes and dimensions. What more information do you need?

Also, when you say "non space proofed" in your above reply, do you mean, small electronics that havent had much attention spent on circuit design? I think ESCs will always have a battle with this as they handle large current so attention needs to be paid to noise and PCB layout.
I see this is also a problem with Kontronik and the thunderbird CC escs.
  Reply:  Mieciu (231 points);
Jason: Could you provide the programming options for this ESC. Also if there's programming card available....just like in 200A monster :-)
Thanks in advance.
  Reply:  Klaus Lange (181 points);
Hello Jason.

Youre are right with potential problems with pulsed high current in PCBs. CC and other are meanwhile well proofed - at least in part by customers, as well. But what's about quality control during development and production. There is the main difference between RC (1 failure per 100?) and car (1 failure per million) or even space components (1 failure per 10^9). And the low prices for chinese products are in part also due to quality control or better the lack of qc.

CC example: If you are searching a bit (manual link...) you will find e.g. that the ESC currents are specified for 5mph airflow, the BEC current is peak current, max. controller frequency is 41kHz etc. And you may learn all about programming features. - So, please just do your best with poviding data to increase our confidence because your customers are very much willing to try your products. And - AGAIN - HK should not leave their customers out in the rain in case of failures and, particularly, in case of half-baked products.

Regards,
Klaus

Is there a programming card option for this unit or is using throttle on tx the only option?
  Reply:  Helicoy (18 points);
Maybe the Turnigy card off course !!
  Reply:  gravity wins (14 points);
Yes this has wet my appetite. I think I will replace my 50A Hyperion speedy in my Angel 30 and take it to 4 cell. Great price! Anotherprice /technology breakthrough by Turnegy and Hobby King.
  Reply:  nando (7 points);
Yes hobbyking, let us know how to program it!
I have a turnigy and a K-force program card, will one of those work? Or do i need to buy the new 'monster' program card?
Or is there a manual available?

I will buy this esc, for a 5s application that will draw 80-85A for 3 minutes, and I can chose fore a lot or very little airflow, so that will be a good test i think.
  Reply:  fiqabumm (5 points);
hey everybody . if anybody can tell me can i use this on my hk t500 instead of using 80 a pulsh and do i need to put anything seperate
  Reply:  David (30 points);
Fig It should work just as good as a plush, With better transition. If they have the Engineering and the QC right
  Reply:  ZZZ (40 points);
ZZZ.Well I have a question,Where is the waranty written on its page for this ESC and how much is the waranty?I would like to know,cause Im still a little confused,can I use the SBEC even on 6s?BTW where are the condensers?I think it even has a switch for on-off(theres a black wire visible)!Why dont Turnigy put on every his ESC a switch to arm it and even a led (like some other brand that already has)to show the batt. status,like their battery monitor(it has a led to ,and a buzzer) and to be joind in one ESC?What happened to one series of Turnigy ESC who were all black and were available few months ago,I even forgot the capacity of them,I think something like 70,140Amp...were they so bad not to be sold again?Just per say,I bought this 85Amp.and when arrives will post a rewiew how it works.To bad it has not got a batt. monitor led.Imagine how it would be useful for 3d planes as for 3d helicopters!

So can we use the Turnigy 2 in 1 Professional Program Box for Brushless ESC with the Turnigy 85 ESC?

Looks suspiciously like the turnigy k-force 70hv casing to me, wonder if its out of HW factory but with lower voltage inner workings

I just received the programming card for the Tz85A ESc, and I could not get it to work only red power led came on. Maybe I got a dud. If anyone has used the monster 200 card with success please respond.
