You know, the funny thing. I always set the epa on my servos high. I never even considered epa on my speed control! How simple and straight forward. I first really noticed the problem when I got too close to the ceiling and cut the throttle. Hit the deck as the motor would not spool back up. Not cool.

It worked pretty good. I am at 72 and 100. I tried 150 on the top end. It was too squirrely. 100 was great. The speed controll will not arm until the killswitch is engaged.

Motrolfly 12 amp. This is working much better. I just have to flip throttle hold before it will arm. Not really an issue, just took me a minute to figure out. It was just beeping at me and I did not know why at first. Lol!

Hopefully I'll be able to try a few more tweaks on my 60" planes this weekend. But I swear by lowering the low EPA until idle and bump it back up a few points. I Almost crashed a new plane because of poor throttle response during low rollers and landing. Guess I shoulda flew the plane alil before attempting something low but I didn't crash so I guess it's all good .

Still is not where I would like it. I really need to go through the programing. It is not like a soft start but kinda sorta? I end up doinking it once in a while do to lack of response. I will get it dialed or try another speed control.

Curious to how old the Esc is? Caps could be bad. Pretty sure that was the problem with the Gecko I had fail.
