When you guys are using numbers then values is that on the small non pc box. I have only looked at the settings in the Lcd box so..... Most of the guys are running a mid 6 fdr I believe.

Default breaking the cardinal rule

need some advise guys - i broke the cardinal sin by plugging in the battery back to front and have blown the capacitor!!! - the ESC still functions (well looks like it does) - can it be used without the capacitor until i find a replacement - and can they be sold separately and where (I am in Melbourne Australia)

dont run with out it, if you cant get aa Speedpassion capacitor , find one for a novak, or lrp any of those 2 can get you by for now. But dont run with out it.

What are the negatives to no cap. I ran 91 laps tonight with X and never had a prob that I noticed. Motor never got over 110 no matter what I changed on X.

I gave on my my sp lpf a while ago, thought i destryed it somehow. Anyway just for grins i put it in my T4 a few weeks ago and it would run as long as there was no real load but as soon as there was it would die. I just realized i didnt have the capacitor on it. Any chance this could have been the issue?

hey guys,

just a small question, if i wanna run the GT2.0 Pro ESC with a 5.5T motor, do you have to do anything like a software upgrade or is ready out of the box??
whats a good starting set-up for an Xray T2, track is indoor carpet, 100' by 45', quiet technical with a 90' straight.

thanks

Ali
