Help With Motor Timing and Poor Throttle Response (Gecko 120HV)

[AKfreak]

I kept my 120HV in the hopes they can resolve the problem. Nothing like free Watts, and the price point is insane. I just know firmware will get it done.

Five hours of flights on my Velox today. Switched to 19X8 prop today and no more heat issues Awesome little plane

Are these all PJN props?

Yep Xoar electric wood props here is a video with the new prop. I just need to get over some fears and let her do her thing.[video=youtube;IyTE_t-r0uI]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyTE_t-r0uI[/video]

That's great news. I wonder when we will see the FW update for the ZTW ESC's.

I do hope soon! I would really like to see these ESC's reach their full potential. Cool vid Mike!

I just made a new series connector from 10 gauge wire for my 150 amp Gecko. Hopefully it will allow the magic electrons to flow more freely...

The electrons flow quite nicely, it's just they need a sec to do so.

I flew the Hobbywing around at Nall and it solved all the issues. Too bad the airframe I put it in did not work super well. This power system will find a new home in a EF or AJ airplane this summer.

Will the firmware be for all the Gecko esc's ? Do they all use the same....

I wasn't getting the top end I expected. It was good and it flew well, but the amps were a little less than they should have been. I'm thinking 10 gauge will help the top end.
