Problem with speed controller, please help.
Hello all,
I have recently built several foamy planes, The Velux Rev II from www.3dfoamy.com and some 28" wwII fighter profilers. I have had several speed controllers from 10a to 20amp just start running at full power all of a sudden, and from that point on i have no speed control for the motor, its full on all the time. When i disconnect the battery and reconnect it again, full throttle without pushing the arm switch! I am using a gws 350c with a d gear drive 6.6 to 1 and a 2 cell lipo at 1300 mah. Please help if you can.
Buy the way my Velux rev II is great with a brushless eflight park 400 and the 20amp brushless esc never had problems with it, plans are free on their site 3dfoamy.com.
Live long and profile!

RE: Problem with speed controller, please help.
Nope never changed anything, i was in mid test running the motor about 50% and i could control it fine then out of nowhere it went to full power and stayed there now thats all it does. Happened with another plane my buddy is just finnished building and he returned the esc and they gave him a new one and said that the 20a esc should handle a 400 and he uses a 350 as well with 2c lipo.
