HK ESC help plz

[Squid90]

I'm looking at getting a ESC from HK with a Turnigy 2215H Heli Motor, what would a good ESC be? Also with the programming on Timing and PWM with a ESC what do I set it to?

A lot if guys have had success with the YEP series from HK. It is a copy of an older version of the YGE.

I run an 80A YEP with my Exceed RC Helium 500 on my 500. Running a 30c 6s pack and it runs very well, cool coming down, motor's a little warm but that's expected.

I'd recommend this: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...ontroller.html

But make sure to get the program card, even if you have to get it from a different site because it makes programming so much less of a pain. I got mine perfectly setup in 2 minutes, and even a lot of the default settings were exactly what I needed.

As far as PWM goes, I need to know what kind of voltage you'll be running (I'm assuming 11.1v 3s pack, but there's so many options for a setup like this.)

PWM = Voltage x kv of motor (in this case 3550) x # of poles in motor (HK website doesn't say so you'll probably want to do your research) /20.

So, for example if you run a 3s pack and if the motor is a 6 pole motor (just an example, not saying it is), your optimal PWM would be 11.1 x 3550 x 6 / 20 = 11.82.

So I think you'd go with 12? I'm not sure if it's better to round up or down for PWM.

I have no idea about timing, I don't know what that motor would need.

Where else the programming card can be bought from ?
