What is the best way to set the headspeed in phoenix? I see there are settings for max rpm and govenor speed, plus there is also the throttle curve settings in the transmitter itself. I will be running a jazz in gov mode so i would like to set the phoenix model up to suit.

I run 100% flat curves.

Hi HFG,

I have a flat 100% curve for IdleUp-2 in the DX7, but in terms of the Sim, a 100% of what?

Is it the "Engine RPM at Max Torque" or the "Govenor Rotor Spead" or something else.

I bump my gov rotor speed up to 3200.

Thanks HFG

Just realised how dumb my second question was:
Is it the "Engine RPM at Max Torque" or the "Govenor Rotor Spead" or something else.


Its not going to be Engine RPM at Max Torque, because this is 36000rpm!
I guess that must be the bench speed of the motor before its drving anything.
