MGM esc programming problem

[triton]

Some new info about MGM-TP pair.
I was on the lake two days for testing. That was very cold but must to run:)
So the end of the 2nd. day the setup was stable. The program I think a bit extreme because must to use very high timing 28 degree for the D wind motor!!!!
The max esc temp 34 celsius.
The motor temp was 20.8 celsius.
The p16 acceleration parameter 4s.
The max speed 126km/h what very low....(10S)
I have better experience with same setup with a little lehner 2250/10.
My experience the MGM-Lehner works much better then the MGM-TP or MGM-Serious combo.

The new motors arrived from Lehner. Two for monos and two for the cat.
I thing if we want to take advantage the maximum possibility of MGM controllers Lehner is an optimal choice.
Hope we will run much faster:)

Hi,i am running a lmt 2250/6 in combination with mgm 280 A esc on 6s in a 29" cat hull.
At high rpm`s it seems esc safety feature is kicking in,when i listen to the sound of the motor.

The ESC is probably hitting a temp limit or a phase current limit. You have an almost SAW setup so this is not surprising. Instead of using the MGM data viewer, download the data file and open in Excel. Look for hardware warnings or high phase currents.

I didn't know you could do that, cool.

I did that,3 high current events were logged-have to say I´m only on the light version of the controller.Maybe i could try to run 2x 6s 3000 mah in parallel instead-not too much room for those in that little boat.

Many thanks for the quick reply!

Hi,i recently ran china motors on MGM controllers and had absolutely no issues.

Another 4 pole MBP 4055-2400kv on Mgm280/6s-7degree timing successfully tested...
still some room for improvement,as amp draw was way too high;some other timing settings to be tested.

Hi...in my case I have the USB link, and have tried to program it through there, but when i plug the batteries in only the steering works but the throttle does not. What did you enter for min/max throttle setting in the middle of the left hand bar. I also have a thread at RCM, just getting my question out there. Any chance you could tell me what settings you have written from the PC?

Sorry for beeing late,the attached pics showing the esc connnected to a lmt 2 pole,was using tactic rx/tx combo that time;throttle settings P6-P8 should not be relevant here.
Important items are P42-P44 and P16-higher values recommended.mgm1.jpgmgm2.jpg

After few years of rest Im over a three events with MGM Lehner combo.
The new 3040/7-s works great with 10S lipo and 15 Timing. No any other issue like previously.
