Hi guys
finished my Quad X build this weekend, and used the build video below to pick some of my parts
http://flitetest.com/articles/H_Quad_Scratch_Build
It mentioned in the build that the Red Brick ESC's would keep up, but I have found that they fail.
The problem seesm to be with the PWM rating of 400hz of the i86 KK board for the ESC's, they can handle the update signals sent at such a high frequency.
I woul need to replace all my ESC's with PLUSH ESC's but beofre I do that, I just want to know if anyone else experienced the same problem.
Symptoms : The I will start up my Quad, hover for a couple of seconds, and one of the motors would just die. Test the ESC on a seperate setup, it works, but as soon as I reconnect it to my KK board, it fails, and this is repeated for the other 4 ESC's as well.
Thanks
Arno
