| As I said, with the RevMax, even your throttle curve influences your headspeed for a given Aux channel setting. E.g., you will have to reset your headspeed if you set it and then bump the throttle curve to 100%.

I'm not trying to argue, maybe I just don't understand what you are saying. I've used the RevMax units for a long time and simply changing the throttle curve only has no effect on the headspeed unless you drop the curve below the setpoint, in which point it's not limiting any more since it's already lower. Now, if you adjust the ATV's on the throttle channel then you do have to recalibrate as this will have an effect on what headspeed a given setpoint equates to.
Regarding the calculator, the accuracy may vary depending on what radio is being used. The prior version of the calculator I found to be problematic, but this version I have found to be very accurate with both my XP9303 and now 12X (using the X9303 selection). Maybe I'm just getting lucky, but I've always been within 20-30 rpm of what I was looking for when I tach'd it. I'm not saying don't use a tach, but hopefully using the calculator will at least give you a value to start with. If you're worried about it being too high, you can always take the values the calculator gives you and start a couple percentage points lower as a starting point. |
