I mis-typed that last post. It's fixed now.

Does anything happen if you tell a correctly set up non-reverse ESC to go backwards?
Nope, that's where they keep the brakes. Can't hurt anything there

Hi 85Edinger,

I`ve seen that the one or other question is not answered from your first request. "gomachv" described exactly how to find 0° timing. I`ve included a pdf-sheet which I made myself with AutoCAD to set further timing. The red line in the middle is 0° timing. Cut one small strap, hold the red line in the center between the two magnets - your 0° timinig - and now you can set your Timing in 2,5° steps and also between. I marked 10°, 20°, 30° and 40° timing. It`s a nice small feature and you can set timinig in ° steps when the marking from your modified motor is not longer visible.

I would also cut the comm from your Peak motor. It doesn`t look to good.

Greetings
