Avian ESC with telemetry and Spirit GT
Posted: Mon 09. Jun 2025 17:05:29
I enabled Spektrum Avian Telemetry on the Spirit Advanced Tab, ESC Telemetry. I moved the Avian ESC throttle cable from AUX1 to CH0 as noted in the Avian Telemetry section of the manual. All telemetry is working as described. However, the first time I spool up after powering the heli, the ESC slow spool up feature does not work and the heli does a very fast spool up and rotates to the left. When I wait for the blades to stop and spool up again, it spools up slowly and takes about 15 seconds to reach full speed. I am not using the Spirit govenor. Each time I plug in a battery pack, the first spool up is fast and then subsequent spool ups are very slow.
Next I reverted to Disable Telemetry and switched the Avian ESC throttle cable back to AUX1 from CH0. Each time I powered up the heli it did a slow spool up.
I believe that something is wrong with the Avian Telemetry and/or with CH0. Is this a known issue or did I miss a Spirit setting when I changed from AUX1 to CH0?
Thanks for reading and any help or suggestions.
Equipment used: Blade 360 and Blade 330, both with Spirit GT, Avian 45 AMP ESC and 4651T SRXL2 Rx. Avian ESCs are set to Store Gov and Very soft start.
