problems with turnigy plush esc.s and apm

 Hi  I have just built another hexacopter using the good old apm (love it) and have used Turnigy plush 30 amp esc's for the first time.

Never had any probs arming the board with other esc's, but I could not arm these.

Ok forum time I thought so had a very good look and found quite a few folk having probs with the plush esc's lots of advice but nothing I hadn't already tried.

Went back and checked my settings and noticed the gps was enabled but wasn't gonna use it, so switched it off.

The other thing I did was recalibrate the radio but when moving all channels I put the throttle trim down to approx. 960 now I ought to mention I am using my tusty old Futaba 8U with 2.4 gig module and flysky telemetry rx.

Anyway worked straight away no problems.

Noticed in the forums one or two changed the esc's for another type !

Well I now know it is definitely possible to use the plush ones.

Any thoughts ??. All the best Mat

  • I use stock Turnigy Plush 30A on my H-Quad (SunnySky2212 980Kv) without any issues, except a little flutter when descending.  First I programmed them with a card to Ni-xx so they would not cut off.  Then I used the calibrate all at once directions found here  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYoknRObfOg
