Re: Spikes

I'm in the don't-cal-em-if-you-don't-have-to camp. We have done it rarely over the years. That IFI stuff is pretty reliable imho.

One quick and dirty check to see that you are getting near full forward and full reverse PWMs to the speed controllers is to watch the green and red lights as indicators. I know, its not very exact, the manual probably says what the green/red thresholds are, but its a good sense check when you have a match in four minutes.....
