    Etti 150 Navy race esc. Programming help.

    Ok I have been around RC for quite a few many years 25+ I programmed one of these a few years ago but can't remember how. Can some one help I have read the instructions and they leave a lot to be desired. I also looked on youtube could only 1 any help or further information out there. How do you select ? full or center brake. anyway pretty confused. This is one part of owning a etti I dont like. very very weak instructions. Could,t even find instructions on installing a capacitor bank. any links or recommendations thanks !

      Anybody. I'm running 6 cells and a separate receiver battery. Programming is impossible cut on radio pull full throttle cut on receiver plug in battery. Half the time I cant get into programming mode how do you select your option then move on to the next mode. ?

        I figured it out. It's a shame that such a good esc has such terrible instructions. I could only find 1 youtube video and it was for one with bec.

          They are a bit of a pain, requires concentration and silence for sure. But a REALLY solid ESC. All of them!! I run 220's ATM

            They really are just aggravating that that couldn't take a little time and write some decent instructions. I contacted them and the response download the manual (I already have) and watch the 1 video I mentioned lol. Think once I get a little more comfortable with it I'll post a youtube video for others like me " ETTI esc programming for dummies"

                        The resistor is for anti-spark. Not really needed under 8s as far as I am concerned. The other wire is rot RPM if you hook up their data analyzer.

                        Next question?

                              There is a HV 250 amp one as well. I have not used one of these though as I run EagleTree.
