gov setup for my 6HV on the V-Bar

[whittb]

I am setting up my new stock 6HV on the V-Bar governor

I am using the following settings

Gear ratio 8.7 (87 tooth main gear and a 10 tooth pinion)
Poles 8 (set to 4 on the V-Bar)
Max head speed ????. I need to know how many rpm’s the 540kv motor is capable of with 330mha 30c X2 packs

I also noticed that the heli sits nose down on the skids. I use a pitch gauge with a level so I had to shim the front skids up by ¼”
to get the main gear level with my bench.

Please verify my settings and correct them if they are wrong.


thanks

The main gear on the 6HV is 104 teeth, so the correct gear ratio is 10.4.

Use Mr.Mels head speed calc!!

Thanks for the tooth count correction, I looked thru the manual and it does not mention it.

I will check out his HS formula
