e-Electric Motors & Controllers > Hacker 48 3P ESC setup ??

I am running a hacker 48 3P with my brushless C50 15L.
It works fine, I have my normal throttle set at 0,15,45,80 to get a decent soft start, and idle at 80% throughout.

I don't see any difference running idle up at 75%, 80%, 90% or 100% seems to be all the same rpm speed. Am I in governor mode or NOT

I do not understand the Governor mode setup.

1. How do I tell if I am in governor mode???
2. What happens if I fly without governor mode, how can I tell the difference ???.

The instructions say nothing about Governor mode setup. They talk about engaging or disengaging the break, changing the timing mode and setting the switching frequency. I have no idea what effect changing timing or frequency would have on performance.

I have not read any other posts on that issue, so I guess I am the only dumb one out there,

Can anybody enlighten me ???? Thanks.

When you plug the battery into the speed controller you will get either 1 or 2 beeps. 1 beep = normal, 2 beeps = Governor mode. To change the mode, before plugging the battery in, place the throttle to full power setting. As soon as you hear the beep, pull the stick down. You can also go past the first set of beeps to the following sets which change the timing. I run my B50-11L in Governor with 5 degrees timing which is a good trade off of power vs battery consumption. The default setting is optimum for the hacker motors. You may have to experiment with the timing to your liking.
