I have an EDF jet with a motor that is somewhat underpowered. The motor is a 2836 out runner Kv2950. The ESC is set to factory default and runs fine with the throttle range already set to the transmitter. I believe the prop is ok, but have not balanced it.
The ESC manual states the modes for "angle of entrance" are "Automatic-- detects the most suitable angle of entrance in most cases", "Low--suitable for most inner rotor motors," and "High--suitable for most outer rotor and 6 poles or more".
The "automatic" is the default.
The ESC manual then states that in order to increase efficiency, we recommend using high angle of entrance in outer rotor motors with 6 or more poles. I believe this describes my motor.
1. Is the "Angle of Entrance" the same as "Timing"?
2. Will programming for "High" angle of entrance increase my power? Is there danger to my motor with this?
3. Are there any other ESC programming modes that I can change to increase power?
Thanks,
Bill
