Used the MMM motor Friday night. Very fast and it's ability to handle heat without dropping off is impressive (got it to 100 degrees C )... Still would prefer to have this down in the 70's. More texting to do.

Looks like the common result is that 323 is about 0.5s a lap quicker than the 528 for the same motor temp and the same gearing (lap being 17.0 seconds average).
Good to know that...

Meanwhile, I will have to try it myself...a group of us here in CHICAGO does not have the 323 missing the brake problem. Infact, we have to dial DOWN to get less brake.

Yes...528 and 1212 are simply 2 different software for stock. 1212 is newer then 528 but if you prefer 528, fire that up...

Keep an eye on 1:47 and after...you just have to pick the 528 and hit UPGRADE.

I have made an excel spread sheet that allows you to play with the numbers and it will show you what your end RPM would be....this would be the point that Turbo timing would be applied if you are using it. It might help you to see just whats going on by looking at it on the spread sheet.

3.....yes from what we have seen this really effects the motor temp.

4.....as best I can tell Yes.
2 and 3 are no's if you dump to much timing on the motor, you will not go faster but go slower and it will take more time for the motor to spool up, and it does create extra heat.

Well....I purposely abused one brand new 1S 21.5 V3 Compeititon motor by gearing to 3.5 final with 30* sensor board (full 30* used) with the club spec ESC. Yes...motor smoked right at the 8 minutes mark (right in front of the finish line....) but the ESC is work just fine...

I will try to smoke the ESC by running a 3.5T motor this week...(no, I am just kidding).

good to know, i will just keep the standard timing ,

i have one problem with a motor ine 17.5 in the f1 is friggen slow and then every now and again it kicks into life i put my other speen passion 17.5 in and it runs sweet as, could the problem be with the sensor not knowing where the timing is ?

thanks

It has to be the hall sensor problem....if that is a V3 Comp motor, you can replace that....but if that is the V2 or V3 Ultrasportsman, then the motor is toasted...
