Help - ESC Hobbyking 35A calibrate to Losi 8ight mini
Hello!
I just brought a HK35A Sensored/Sensorless Car ESC for my losi 8ight mini, to upgrade from the Losi ESC.
I also brought a Turnigy GTX3 which I am happy with!
Now I've read the manual from Hobbyking / trolled Youtube and google and for the life of me I can't program this ESC to work in my losi 8ight mini.
I followed these instructions: (from YouTube, but better than the manual)
FIRSTLY: Hold the "SET" Key while Turning on the ESC Switch from "off" to "on"
SECONDLY: Turn on your controller and set the THROTTLE TRIM To 100% or full
THIRDLY: Press the "set" key ONCE and a single beep will occur while leaving controller at NEUTRAL
FOURTHLY: Pull the Trigger fully to the position of FORWARD THEN Press "set" key while holding it and 2 beeps occur. once 2 beeps are done go back to NEUTRAL POSITION
LASTLY: Push the Trigger away To BACKWARD and make sure to push the trigger is pushed whilst pressing the set key... Once its all done beeping.. RESTART ESC..)
I can hit the red program mode, but I can't seem to get it all working.
At one point I had it going forwards and backwards, but the forwards was so brutal it would of snapped something. I have configured it on low acceleration with the program card.
If anyone can help me on a config sequence that would be great, I contacted HK customer service and that was like a circus.
From what I read channel 2 (throttle/brake) should be set to REV on the Turnigy GTX3, I also can only get the program (red lights) on the ESC by putting the trim the back MAX (30)
Thank you!
