Advice - Setting up IceHV 160 via castle link.
 
HI EVERYONE

Im called on people who have used the Phoenix Ice HV 160 on their trucks.

Bare in mind, mine is weighing 19lbs fully loaded...

I need help with setting up, so i do not do it incorrectly and blow something...

So i need help with the following sections

Throttle
What vehicle do i set it to? Airplane?heli?Control Line?
and what following settings after vehicle type is chosen... I wouldnt mind a very brief explaination as to why as well:oops:

Brake
I thought this esc didnt have braking... obviously i have mech brakes, and im sure the braking system is for something else... but would this be needed for my mech brake setup?

Cutoffs
I have set my cutoffs at 3.3v and set it to soft cut off
My current limiting is set to normal at 60 amps. IS THIS OK?

Motor
Timing - should i set this to low? or leave it at normal?
PWM Rate - What is this? and what mode should it be?

Logging
When logging, do you have all the boxes ticked? and how many samples a second do you take?

Software
Im running the latest software at the moment, but is there an older one which is more ideal?


I know if i set something wrong, like setting the motor timing high on an MMM, you can potentially work the esc harder and blow it... so i really need help with this and a bit of advice and explaining on some of the settings would be appreciated.


THANKS A LOT

Josh
