HV 6.5 Question

[RobK]

This sounds identical to the problem I had with my HV-MAXX 4.5 & Nomadio. Are you using their lipo saver by any chance? If yes, you need to go through lipo saver setup with it--fixed my problem.

There is no Li-Po saver involved. I didn't install it because I'm just running IB 4200 6 cell packs.

I probably didn't get it setup right. If by chance I turn the receiver before the radio this thing will take off and crash into the first thing it hits and wont stop until you turn it off.

If you turn on the radio 1st it will surge for just a second. Which is a pain in the ass. But it will stop after that and be fully functional.

Maybe I should try to reprogram the receiver?ould

Could it have something to do with the fact that my throttle trim is way up on 26 just to stay still? Maybe it's just setup wrong?

hmmm....strange indeed. here's what i would do:

* set your dx 3.0 to the factory settings (all adjustments, trims, etc.)
* re-bind your rx to your tx
* re-program the hv system with the spektrum

you shouldn't have to set your throttle trim that high just for it to set idle. when i had my hv 6.5, i too had (have) the dx 3.0 and it worked perfectly. no blips or jumps at all. in fact, it could be that you haven't bound your rx to the tx - when set up correctly, nothing connected to the rx will work until it gets the tx signal.

You have to switch the throttle "servo" direction in the radio, or flip your diff's. It has to do with the way the motor is designed to turn for Forward/Reverse. Unfortunately for us, its backwards from the way an Emaxx is set up to run. But it still will act a little funny on you. On non-sensored motors, you can simply reverse the polarity of the power wires. But on the Novaks, you cant do that. There was a thread about this right before the server crash.

I had this same issue on my emaxx with the 4.5 and the DX3.0, and I just reversed the direction of the throttle servo on the DX 3. It acts a little funny when going from reverse to forward - it has that long pause one normally gets going from forward to reverse.

On my Revo, I ended up flipping the diffs. We'll see this weekend how that works out.

Well, I defaulted my radio and "re-bound" the receiver and it came back and did the same thing again.

Same as before. I'm going to keep messing with it but I'm not sure where to go now.

I did notice that if the esc is disconnected from the receiver it doesn't do it. Does that mean that it is a signal coming from the radio?
