Ok, Could some one give me some guide line for setting gradual timing with the RS Pro with a 17.5 in a Slash.

Start RPM/End RPM etc.

What is max RPM on the 17.5 Tekin?

This will be my first time using the Hotwire, so if you could give any pointers I would appreciate it.

Thanks

ok since it is adjustable try the settings i said with zero motor timing run it and then add motor timing up to around 10-15 deg with my redline 13.5 the overall infield felt the best with motor timing,try different combos to see what feels the best for your driving style

Just finished racing at the TITC event in Thailand where there was over 300 entries.

Funniest thing at the whole event was watching the Speed Passion team drivers in the brushless class. They had Tekin ESC's with a heatsink stuck on top with Speed Passion stickers stuck around the outside

Now that is just hilarious

We managed to take a few pics. Will see if they can show the disguise work

Is anyone having any success with running a 13.5 SP V3 motor with the Tekin with the v203? I am really having issues finding a good setup that works well with this motor in a rubber TC. It just seems slow. I took my same setup from my Duo 2 and tried to apply it with very little success.

I am really interested in FDR, RPM range, Ramp and delay.


Thanks...

I have a speedy in with Tekin to be repaired. After 2 emails they still haven't got back to me with an update on how it is going. How else can I get an update on it?

Give them a call and all they need is your name to find out the status. Takes all of 30 seconds if you get right through. Emails fall through and if there isn't enough info in the email to determine who is asking they might not be able to answer accurately.

This might have already been covered here, but has anyone had issues with v203 running faster backwards than forwards? I have to put turbo in my B4 tonight just make some speed. any help would be greatly appreciated.

I had a problem with my throttle today. I am running a GENX-10 WGT 1cell lipo with a Tekin 13.5 motor and Tekin RS speedo with a novak booster. When I would apply throttle the car would not move, it would launch sometime after as if I had a delay setting. I replaced the booster with a lipo receiver pack and the problem did not go away. Any help appreciated.

Forgot to ask. Should the voltage cutoff be 3.7v?

I'd turn the VC off and be careful not to "deflate" the pack too far, but thats just me.

If you are using the "custom" cutoff setting you should set it between 3 and 3.3 depending on how safe you want to be.
