RC Speed Controller

Other Hardware Motors, Mechanics, Power and CNC

Hello,

I am new to Arduino. I have a Speed Control from RC car ( Himoto is the brand ) and i can not make it to engage, i mean to hear the 3-4 bips and then start using it.
Im trying to control it as a Servo motor, but no luck. With the same code i managed to use a servo btw.

Anyone can point me a solution... or a tutorial?

Thanks.

RC Speed Controllers have a fail safe.

Plane, Heli and Car without rev must be powered on with the Throttle set to Low or they will not engage.

Unfortunately Low Throttle might be either 0 or 100 depending on Whether Servo Reversing was needed on normal RC Gear

For a Car Speed Controller with Rev, It will need to be set at 50% before power is applied to the Speed Controller.

does anyone have a snippet of code that can control a servo without the Servo Library?

void loop ()
{
  digitalWrite (RCpin, HIGH);
  delayMicroseconds (1500);
  digitalWrite (RCpin, LOW);
  delay (19);  
}
