i'll carry out some checks when I get home and give you the results tomorrow thanks so far jon,ill tellyou about the problems Ive had with my Twinstar tomorrow

Jon did you find that the screech went away when the start up mode was set on hard mine is on normal I think

jon,did you find that the correct start up ison hard on the program card

I did get a program card but changing it hasnt made any difference,the timing that is it is set for aeoplane start up mode

I used a watt meter and found everything OK,but when I started to carry this procedure out, the motor smoked and burnt out.BRC checked the motor and speed controller,and supplied anew motor FOC. This problem seems to have come along after several flights and I wonder if the speed controller may have been damaged in some way during one of my crashes.If you gently increase throttle,its ok but if you give full throttle as in taking off it initially moves off then effectively screeches and stops dead.Ihavent tried to fly it again until I eliminate this problem

I  am  a first year flyer and have aSeagull Pioneer.I bought the kits from Galaxy models and the motor and esc and servos from .BRC.I say kits Because Idestroyed 3mostly my fault but I did discover an electrical glitch with the controller I used.With rhe BRC supply recommended of Motor etc the Cand G were spot on.Ive had a problem with the motor on start up which i cannot figure out,but Im going to try a reduced prop now my controller has been rectified Steve grigg
