We do not expect any significant increase in raw speed, but we do think 208 is smoother which allows for faster laps. It is also running a little cooler in some setups which may allow you lean on the motor a little more.
It is a double edge sword. If we let the software out too soon and there are problems we are idiots, people lose the race of their life and are mad at us for ruining they career. If we test the software for a few weeks in team driver cars to make sure we have it right some think it is unfair. I hate being an idiot so you all have to wait
We like to do things right and team testing is an important part of the process. We can bench test and measure all we want, but until it hits the tracks with different conditions and skilled drivers it is just theory. The feedback from our drivers is where we indentify needed improvements to give you a something that makes you smile. Vegas 208 should produce some big grins

I actually like to orient them to the outside for improved airflow over the posts. I don't hang them off the edge looking for damage, but the cooler the better. I have been running RSs since they came out and have never had an issue with the solder posts touching, or even deforming at all, nor have I seen someone else with this issue. I'm sure it can happen, but I wouldn't lose any sleep over it.

Personaly I think that it is a good thing that tekin tests it software before it is realeased to the general public
But Jim I wish I was one of those testers

( One could use the iphone 4 as an example of inadequate testing, or is it just a media frenzy gone wild ?... personally my iphone 4 works great and finding a person that has returned their iphone4 is a very rare occurance, if anyone ? LOL ) but this is not the iphone forum is it ? )
....unless 208 works with the iphone now :-) that would make me grin !!!!

Let that driver who was 5/10ths quicker drive your car and see if he is any faster with it than you are. It is hard to admit when it is our own fault for making a car slower than it should be.

There isn't a performance gain between 203 and 208. Maybe you set up is off.

Why did the KO radios give you trouble? I have the erus and haven't had any issues with any speed controls. Now I have seen that some servo's even the digital ones don't like the speed of the radio and tend to chatter until you turn it down. But there are very few like this.
Anyway, just curious what the issues where.
thanks
