Pete B Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 I think you are in the right place here, Richie - I've deleted your other thread as multiple posts tend to confuse... Could do with a little more info. Do you mean that the motor doesn't respond at all after connection apart from the one bleep? If that's the case, how do you know the failsafe works? It might just be a case of 'teaching' the ESC the throttle settings. Remove the prop first for safety reasons! In the following order: Switch on the Tx. Move the throttle to fully open. Connect the flight pack battery. The motor should beep. Move the throttle back down to fully off. There should be one or more confirmatory beeps from the motor if it has set properly. If that doesn't work, tell us what is happening. I've had a Google and come up with a couple of links for FMS ESC's - even though the Word doc only mentions 50A max, it is likely to be the same procedure. Links to Dynam-RC ESC's - which seem to be the same as FMS - are available in this RCG thread. Those instructions seem to be identiocal to those provided for the Hobbywing Pentium/Flyfun or Turnigy Plush range of ESC's. What do you mean by rebinding it to three different channels? It should only be used on the throttle channel as you are unlikely to have failsafe on any channel other than throttle on a number of radio systems.

Frank Skilbeck Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Follow what Pete says above, but also check that you don't have any throttle trim up, I have a couple of ESCs which won't arm if the throttle trim is up it needs to be almost fully back.

Rob Jones 2 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 If it all works normal what is the problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richie P Posted February 11, 2014 Author Share Posted February 11, 2014 on the rebinding i have cleared memory on three different channels and tried that just to see if anything would happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richie P Posted February 11, 2014 Author Share Posted February 11, 2014 what is concerning me is that the esc dose not recognise the battery as being a 6cell, are some esc made this way as they just give one beep and take it that alls ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete B Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 They don't all give a sequence of beeps corresponding to the number of cells. Unfortunately, unless you know for certain exactly which make and model of ESC is fitted, it's difficult to give a definitive answer. Have a look from about the 56 minute mark of this video. He's setting the throttle travel and then re-connecting the pack which gives a series of tones. I'm assuming this is the model you have although, of course, we can't be certain which ESC is being used: Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Chaddock Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Richie P As BEB says dont worry This is my 60A Mystery on a 3cell. Just a single beep to confirm it has armed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richie P Posted February 11, 2014 Author Share Posted February 11, 2014 thanks Pete gone through the same procedure but where he gets a few setup beeps when he returns the throttle to bottom mine dose not, i can only assume that mine is the same as simons below, i hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
