Now this gets a bit strange, just checked mine out and it doesn't have any movement available that I can see. The three screws that hold the black end cover on a have very little to no movement through the plates here.
I will check it again tomorrow when I have more time, but could this mean there are more than one 13.5 motor about ?

Checked mine, was about half a mm out, still puzzled on gearing, I seem to have settled one tooth BELOW what I run a CO27 at with similar results. Any thoughts?
Presently running 20/70 in a TA05 (Run a CO27 at 21 and a Sports Tuned at 23) Motor getting to around 135 degrees with a Much More Cooling fan on a heatsink. Using LRP Speedy (so no Blue wire on the speedy)

what are the chances of me moving the timing if i was to remove the black end cap to lube the rear bearing?
as i have just purchased a brand new 13.5 and would really like to lube the rear bearing before i use it and also to advise other people about it at the track

I'm still waiting on a reply from Novak about setting the timing.

Received this answer from Charlie at Novak USA this morning...
"Hello Sir,
Well unfortunately it is not that simple. I would be very interested to hear how that theory has come about though....
We use a fairly involved machine to set timing on the motors. There is really no accurate way to reset them to factory defaults unfortunately.
Typically you have to "try" to move the timing. If you don't actually put your hands on it to turn it it stays put."
So guys it's a shame there's no way of setting with a meter or something....

maybe its adjusted by feeling on the track? adjust it to such position that will give you the best performance and coolest temp? but how much can be adjusted 2-5mm or more? but in saying that if charlie says the timing wont move unless you move it everyone should be fine 
and thats a good idea heavy
