Anyone have problems getting Talon to recognize high throttle position ?
I followed the procedure in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GIygxaozogc , although with a different (Spektrum) FBL, but with a similar Spektrum radio.
Thanks for any tips--(this ESC has been set up successfully with Vcontrol/Neo, which has an ESC Wizard for setting high/low throttle, etc) but I am using a Spektrum radio/sat with the Spirit (new Dx8 gen2).
Everything is working correctly with the Dx8/Spirit setup--just cant' get Castle ESC to arm.
Thanks

Hello,

first from all you will need to assign Throttle in the software. By default it is unassigned.
You can do so in the General/Channels, Throttle - Channel 1 is usual settings.

Then everything should work. Make sure that Governor in the unit is not activated during calibration.

I've setup in the past, the spirit against a Talon90, so I know it works.

For me, it was:

- Make sure spirit see's the TX throttle, from 0->100% in drag
- Calibrate the Spirit -> Talon90 by bringing in the start/end points in throttle calibration screen within the spirit s/ware, bringing the full throttle out (higher value) until getting the beeps, pulling throttle down on the TX to zero, then pulling the low throttle in the spirit s/ware lower until it arms.

Very similar to doing on the TX, except you're doing it in the spirit s/ware.
Can't remember if I had to reverse the throttle signal or not, but that might be worth a shot if you can't get the full throttle to register against the Talon at all.
