Tekin RS ESC sensored
03-02-2010, 01:52 PM
i made a thread on the tekin forums that has gone unanswered so i will ask here. will a 2nd capacitor help cool the ESC when running the redline sensored 2.5 (using 4-cell nimh)?
looking at this picture of the tekin capacitor

the number on the end (PS793 i think) is different than the number on my cap (PS7N5). Is it still the right one or should I PM randy to have him send me some?

I know what you mean Yang, the more aggressive drivers can get close, but I've yet to see one actually dump! I'm quite mild on the pack myself (take that as not fast enough!) and have never taken more than 3400 out with a 10.5.
If we really are pulling the voltage down to below 3.2 volts a Novak booster has no chance!

there was one of the lads at the maritime national recently who dumped every run in 10.5 with lipo (did it at carpet wars too), so it is possible

Well for me the TQ booster didn't work properly and the RC Dynamics one did! I was getting missed PT laps and a chattering servo with the TQ. Perfect with the RC Dynamics. Others have had no problem with the TQ.
The biggest advantage of the RC Dynamics booster though is it supplies a true 6 volts and can keep up with the current requirements when others can't. Extremely high quality components throughout too. That and it has a built in switch which makes for a much neater installation. Downside is the RC Dynamics one costs more.

10.5 TC Setup
Hi all,
Have just bought an RS Pro and I'm looking for a starting point for gearing and esc setup for rubber TC on asphalt with duo 1 10.5. Track is technical but has two 130' straights.
I'm guessing schreff's 13.5 snowbirds setup will be pretty close, just wondering what changes if any should be made for the lower wind motor
thanks

alright guys i just got the tekin rs and im trying to figure out what settings i should put it at.
right now im running a 17.5 orion vortex 40t pinion 96t spur. its all in a cyclone s. im running on asphault if that helps and sometimes carpet
if someone can help me out with the hotwire setup that would be great. if you have yahoo messanger pm ma and i will give you my s/n so you can help me through it better lol thanks!

JR Z3650 servo
Tekin RS with 200 or 203 (of course!)
KO 408S Rx
AMB PT
This combination did not work with the TQ for me, perfect with the RC Dynamics. I didn't try swapping too many parts for others as I had a solution that worked.

I think something else is up with that SP driver's car, other than the speedo. In the 3rd leg of the A main final, that green and white car attacked me and I noticed his car was like a rocket on the straightaway. He could gain about 20 feet on me on the straight away alone. My car was definitely not slow. There is no way his car could be so fast even with a Tekin. During the practice runs, I saw his car as fast as some of the mod cars, and when his buddies temped his motors, I went to took a look also, and it was only 75 degree C. Battery may be?

Hi,
Firstly apologies if this has been covered before !
I am new to Tekin and have just purchased an RS Pro. Overall I can't complain it certainly has the top end and the grunt - Just one small dilemma:-
Just wondered if anyone has experienced a delay on starting (Only really noticable in the Finals). A little disappointing when you hear the buzzer and hit the throttle only to be left standing as others fly by. This is probably only a fraction of a second or so but makes all the difference.
My settings for 13.5 on Carpet are :
Vegas 2.03
Boost 50
No Turbo (Track with 25m Straight so not needed - When I have tried turbo it comes in too late and I am left with virtually no brakes!)
Throttle Profile 4
Start RPM 2800
Finish RPM 9600
Any ideas would be much appreciated
Thanks
