Tekin RS ESC sensored

Make sure the Hotwire is plugged directly into a usb port, not a hub. I saw a hub cause issues this weekend.
Make very sure that the usb plug is plugged in completely into the Hotwire unit, and also that the hotwire servo lead is plugged fully into the esc.
You can also try a factory reset first.

thx tagger. heard u were gettin more duo 1s soon? true? all i'm hearing (grain of salt) is that teh new 2 has already been nicknamed the 'duo-ver'. i might score some more tekin motors depending on whats out there. granted this ballistic wont have to worry bout dirt at the C or mimi's. however i will want somethin for my b4 that can do a decent job of keepin dirt out. even the thought of 1 of those foam motor covers from the 80s seems so alien now (foot in mouth, just put 1 over a vintage reedy comp stock in my rc10 resto ha)
thx again, lemme know. finally gonna get back on the road/rug...especially since my house is being built down there in GB as we speak.

hmm, well then perhaps we'll need to talk some more. if only to give the b4 heart 'duo-ver'. prolly of a 13.5 or even 17.5 variety, havent decided yet.

Thank you to Tekin and Randy Pike for the great speedo's at the IIC race in Vegas. Nice to meet you Randy.
#6981
Hey Randy, nice T you have there. Can you send me one by 4th October? Have a national event coming up. Heh heh...

I used my RS Pro for the first time on Friday night...
All I can say is
OH MY GOD !!!
I was running a 13.5 Speed Passion and whupping the 10.5 guys down the straight.
This thing is awesome... It will be even better next week if I remember to take my laptop with me
Nice one Tekin

Randy,
I would like to get in on the shirt band this year.
It would be nice to represent what I run.
God Bless

Hey Randy thanks for all your help at the IIC. It was really cool of you to come and support not just the pro racers but us Joe Shmos as well, especially since you came only to support us and didn't race at all. Now that is customer service and commitment! Still gotta work on adding in that "Skill" slider to the Hotwire though

Some help with capacitors
Hi. Have been running an RS Pro but a short while and am enjoying the power and flexibility. As I am running a 4 turn brushless most of the time I understand it is advised to run another capacitor in parallel?
As I'm not too good with capacitance, my questions are:
1. Will I have to go with another capacitor with the exact same rating as the original one?
2. Can I 'upsize' the capacitor with one like the following Speed Passion one and remove the original one altogether? http://www.rckenon.com/public_html/s...82&osCsid=aac2
3. Can I run a capacitor rated for a higher voltage? If so what sort of specs should I look for?
Thanks for your patience and sorry for my nOObness.

You can use a additional cap the same as the one supplied with teh RS or you can replace it with one like you mentioned or a similar one by TOP Racing.

Also when in parallel the stock tekin caps combined rating will be 16Volts and 660 microfarads?
In this case any capacitor with 16Volts rating and a capacitance equal or greater than 660mf will be a step in the right direction?

So can I add on another cap like the SP item IN PARALLEL with the stock cap?

Searched thru many sites.. this one seems to fit the bill.
For Tekin, guess you could use the TT3522... Correct me if I am wrong..
Cheers!
