1 Preparation

The governor from the Spirit unit (so called External governor) can be used with all single line digital receiver connections. This mean that for PWM and PPM it cannot be used. To make it work, you will need to get a RPM Sensor which can supply the unit with current RPM data.

For usage of this governor it is necessary to connect the throttle (ESC or the Throttle servo) in the AUX port.

2 List of tested sensors

To make the governor work well it is very important to choose an appropriate RPM sensor. The following are known to work well.

2.1 Electric Motors

  • HobbyWing Platinum ESC v3/v4 RPM output
  • YGE ESC v4 RPM output
  • CC Phoenix Edge RPM output
  • Scorpion Commander RPM output
  • HobbyWing RPM Sensor
  • Orange RPM Sensor

2.2 Nitro and Gasser Motors

  • Align HE50H22 RPM Sensor
  • Spartan SRC-RPM RPM Sensor
