Default Castle Ice 50 and Scorpion 2221-6 ?
Need help with the set up. I'm going to use an 11 tooth pinion. How should the esc be set up? Timing, governor?
Thank you.

You need to know the target head speed and gearing (main gear) to determine governing. These parameters will be required by Castle Link.
Scorpion motors usually like low timing and 8KHz PWM.
What heli are you flying?

It's a Blade 450 3d.
I emailed CC and they sent me this.

12 kHz PWM
Normal timing
Current limiting - insensitive

If you run in GOV mode the GOV Gain probably needs to be around 15
