I'll need to set up my Tunigy Marine 120A Brushless speed controller shortly and wonder how I should set up the throttle.
a) No reverse, fully down being stop. The lakes I have in mind are quite large and I doubt reverse would be needed, though I'm happy to be corrected.
b) Up for forward, Middle position neutral, down to reverse. My Transmitter doesn't have a spring return so it won't naturally return to this position. Also Using up 50% of the stick travel for a function that will barely get used seems wasteful
c) Set a neutral position further down the travel; top 75% or so of the stick movement for forward speed, bottom 25% for reversing. Gives better throttle resolution but still allows for a reverse. Not sure if this is achievable but I don't see why not. My Tx might even be programmable for this, not sure yet (Flysky T6)
What are peoples opinions? I did wonder about setting reverse up on a spare channel but I don't see a way of making it work other than adding a reversing motor (no chance!).
All of your wisdom gratefully perused, thanks
