Default F1 17.5 MMM with GT 2.1

Hi guys, i'm running in F1 17.5T class and i need some tips.
I'm running with slick tires on asphalt
At the moment i have GT 2.1 pro stock edition ESC and 17.5 MMM motor, the motor is really powa maybe to much and probably the esc is with touring mod class program...
I'm getting my LCD Professional program card this week and i would like to know what kind of setting, firmware and program i have to use.

Please Help ME i have googled a bit but i haven't find nothing for gt 2.1 on f1 cars

There is not much you need to do on F1...and I personally think 17.5 is too much. We ran 21.5/silver can and it is plenty fast. Also, no timing on ESC. I set the timing on the motor to the middle position and it is more then enough.

I would use the 508_no_timing software and concentrate on the F1 car setup instead. I was gear at 23/96 on my F103 running V2 Ultrasportsman 21.5 motor with Cirtix Club Spec ESC since day 1.

No drag brake (at least for me)...RWD is just not fun to use drag brake, you need a lot of throttle control when running F1, kinda like 12th scale.

Default Busted esc

It breaks my heart to say but, I think my cirtix stock club esc is toast.
I ran one heat of vta then nothing my servo works but no motor I've tried a differnt motor, rebinding/calibrating esc and nothing just blinks red what would cost to get this fixed or should I just buy another one.

i like the 1 cell 17.5 t in my F1, use the citirx speedy with the V3 1cell i think its a good combo. at times i swith back to the 13.5 but its just a little to much power i find the rear wheels spinning at 3/4 throttle but on carpet its good with foam

Repair cost is more then the ESC itself....

It is instock for a short period of time...get it before it is out of stock again.

If your GT2 PRO is purchased new (not by someone else)...it should has 205g within that is good for MOD TC racing........use MARC setup at our setup page. We don't have plan to do 4.0 in MMM...but the MMM 4.5 is definitely the motor you should go for.
