I will restate what I said a different way. Start on level 2 and if you CAN maintain the desired FC level with your output set between 20% and 80%
then stay on level two.
If you have go below 20% drop to level 1 and start around 50% and adjust until the FC is where you want it.
if you have to go above 80% the move up to level 3 and start at 505 and adjust until the FC is where you want it.
Gotcha, makes sense now. I'll take some readings and determine the correct setting. Thanks for the explanation. The manual is not clear at all regarding the power level settings.
