why is there such a desire in fort collins to hang on to the dying technology of round cells and brushed motors. whoever is behind keeping them alive needs to stop. there is a reason we no longer use rotary phones or black and white t.v.. things evolve, move on.
just my .02
With all due respect, it's what I have and it still works so why let it sit on a shelf collecting dust. Can't sell them so run it till it dies. Besides, they are competitive at the track I race at.
And that's my two cents!!!!!

Hey fellow Tekin users,
The racers in rubber tire touring 17.5
When you went from pre 200 version to 200 version what was your FDR change?
What was the change in 12th 13.5?
Thanks for your time
God Bless

Hey Guys,
Grenade10 told me on the tekin thread to post this question here on your thread. Any help you can give this Montana boy would be very appreciated.
Thanks
I am getting into a 13.5 - 1s - 12r5.1
I use a tekin rs for my touring car and I want to get one for the 12r5.1
My questions:
1. What is the best booster to use?
This car will be run on a 40 by 60 carpet most of the time.
2. Does anyone have a tekin set up for those parameters including roll out?
Thanks so much for your time
God Bless
Sorry for such a delay in the response, forgot to post what I have... so, here goes.
Tekin RS Pro running 1s Lipo in my CRC Gen X
Full boost and Turbo running roughly a 2.85 rollout. I run profile 3, deadband at 0 and 50% drag brake.
I have tried both the Novak smartboost and running a rx pack, they both work about the same really. The rx pack will make your servo super fast, but the booster is a little more user friendly as you don't have to remember to charge it.
If you'd like chassis set up, I can post that as well, but since you are running an AE car, it won't really apply.
Hope this helps,
Dan

Here's a great setup for the AE car. I'm running it in my new 12R5.1 and it's hooked up. I've been using Jaco Lilac and Double pinks on the front, so far I like Double pink the best. Magenta in the front, as the setup says, may be a bit to soft but worth trying.
For TC 17.5 rubber I've been using V200; 20 boost, Max turbo, .5 delay, 4.5 FDR with Jaco blue tires.
