That sounds great ..thanks man

I'll pm you and work out a time.

I checked last night and it doesn't seem the vbar has those parameters to change on the governor

I tried playing with the governor gain on the vbar as well with no success in solving the problem

Seems I may just rip all the governor crap out, replace the 16t pinion back to the 15t and just call it a day!!...i dunno

I wasn't able to get the 18a version to go into external gov mode. So I just ended up putting it into gov off mode.

And yes I am using a HW sensor.

Looks like its still in the gov off mode when I just checked it.

Re: Trex 250 pro dfc build and discussion

hey guys

sry I havnt chimed in, in sooo long!!..Life's been busy.

So back at it again and I need a hand..hopefully someone can tell me what is the matter hear on spool up. It is stuttering and not able to hold RPM...hoping its either just an esc setting as you had "tporter" or a vbar gov gain setting?

made a youtube vid so you guys could see
