Here are the E6 and E7 setup files when using Hacker 470kv and 580kv motors.
Only thing you may have to change is the direction, pinion tooth count, and desired head speeds.
Thanks,
Matt

Perfect!! As I have just managed to get hold of a New Castle ICE2 120HV for my E6 this is just what i was looking for!! Thanks Matt!
-
Thank's Matt !
I try this on my E7 !!

Matt,
Can you run the CC2 120Amp through the CGY 750? A few others are doing this with cheaper speedies and they are finding that the piro comp works much better, and the flight times are a little better?
-
I'm not sure I know what you mean.
The Castle ICE120HV does not have an internal BEC, you have to have something else to power the 750.
I am using Castle Pro Bec and Western Robotics BEC's to power the 750. Both set at 6volts.

I'm guessing he means running the throttle signal through the CGY750, like the external gov mode on the VBar.
-
My throttle lead from the ICE120 has always went directly into 750. Not sure why you would want to plug it into the RX.
Not sure about flight times being better, the power consumption is not going to change.
Piro comp should exactly the same plugged into RX or 750 as long as the 750 governor is set to match the RPM of the Castle ESC. Not sure why but, a lot of guys don't even use the portion of the 750 that calculates head rotation speed to assist in piro comp. I think its mainly just lack of information.
Maybe time for another setup video?

Sorry Matt,
What i mean is, many pilots are using the governors based in the FBL units rather than the ones based within the speed controllers.
Are you simply using the governor based within the CCIce or is it the CGY750 governor that you are using?
-
Ahhh okay....
I am using the ICE120 Governor, it works very well for me.
Matt
-
Yeah cool, we tried using the CGY one with a sensor drilled into the main gear, it actually worked very well however you are right, the best combination so far is the CCHV, gov enabled and programmed to the CGY.
-
I guys !
Matt setup work very well for me on my E7!
I just change the head speed !!
Thank's !

Hi Guys,
The recommended timing (according to the Hacker website) for the Hacker A50-12L 470Kv is 15 degrees. The CC file attached in the OP has timing at 5. What would you recommend?
Cheers.
-
Hi HelliYea !
I setup mine at 5 and Hacker 470 are powerfull and run smooth. But I don't know if we can break Hacker engine with bad timing?
Usualy with drive(Castle creation or other brand), it's verry important to have good timing.
I have 23 flight with mine and no problem for now.

Thanks Yan. I have mine at 5 but the motor is coming down quite hot. I'll try 15 on the weekend and see if that changes anything.
Cheers.
-
I recommend the timing that Hacker Suggest.
-
Hi helliYea!
Let me know if your hacker run cooler With same power!
If you have laser gun for check the temp is better for have precision.
I think to try me too !
Thank's!
Yan

I have the timing on my a50-12l at 15 and the motor has more power than I can use! Nice and cool too.

Warning. It is probably just a coincidence, but I set my timing to 15 on my CC ICE2 160 and it burst into flames on spool up..... Not happy.
-
Seriously ???
Ouch .
And your heli are ok ??
Yan
:-[
-
Thanks Yan. I'll post photos and vid later but unfortunately it caught on fire on spool up whilst on the ground (luckily). The only damage I can see is the fried ESC and the carbon tray it was mounted on. Even the canopy only has superficial damage. The most annoying bit is that I will not be able to fly it over my Christmas break ...
-
That would be pure coincidence, especially knowing the history of castle ESC's, send straight back to Aidan or Model Engines as they are doing Australian Warranty claims.
I'm around Gary, we might be able to get you sorted.

JC

So whats the trick to opening up the file Matt?
-
Hi !
If you want to see the setup on your pc you just have to do a right click on the file and select OPEN WITH, and select WordPad!!
Yan

Thanks
Why the F do we have to do math every time we post something. :P
-
am I missing something? where are the files? Ive got by beastx all setup on my E7 and just need to setup the castle 120hv with my hacker 470. any help is appreciated. thanks in advance.
and can we PLEASE get rid of the word/letter verification, I can rarely read them
-
The file is on the top of page 1. This is page 2.

Sounds good let us know if you need any more help.

Where did the setup files go for the cc120 and hacker 470kv.
Actually looks like all attachments have been removed.
If anyone can send me a copy that would be great
