Can I use the Series 1580/1585 for coaxial testing?
Unfortunately, the Series 1580/1585 does not support dual-motor control and testing. If you wish to test dual-motor, we suggest using the Flight Stands.
The Series 1580/1585 can only be communicating with ONE computer at a time, the software cannot support multiple opening sessions.
If you must test two motors on the Series 1580/1585, you may then:
- Have 2 computers and one for each thrust stand Series 1580/1585
- Open the software on each computer and make measurements on each PC
- Use one circuit to control: plug ESC A to the ESC port on circuit A, and plus ESC B to the Servo port on circuit A.
- Make sure that you start data logging simultaneously on both stands when you start the test
When you have propellers larger than 18”, we suggest using the Flight Stands for your coaxial testing.
