Leopard 180 amp ESC Timing

[jakevisser10]

I swapped out my 60 amp aquacraft esc for a leopard 180 amp esc. I know the default on the aquacraft is 10 degrees of timing, does this mean that I should program the other esc at 10 degrees too or should I just leave it default? What exactly does the timing do?

Different timing for "Y" and "D" motor. Usually 15* for "Y" and low (0-4) degrees for "D" motor.
The Seaking default is set at 15*, good for "Y" motor.
The stock AquaCraft motor is "D" i think.
They differ in the way how the windings in the stators are configured, and the ESC needs to know what is the most efficient way to energize the stator.

BTW, Seaking is Leopard.

alright thanks. It is a y wind, i figured that the default would be alright, but just wanted to double check. Thank you for your help!
