All the settings are just the minimum as default because there are so many combinations it would be impossible to set a "default".

Depending on the class, Luke Hobson put a post earlier that had some good settings.

Yes it will be submitted after we have enough stock to be able to send units to ROAR.

Hi guys, could you help me please...
I'm new to LRP, now I installed LRP Flow Works team on my Tamiya TA06pro with 17.5T motor.
I've already tried FDR from 6.0 to 9.2 but the car still run like a turtle.
I set the FLOW: initial drive #3, torque timing#2, boost timing #10, boost angle #9.
I have also tried to combine between boost timing from #6 to #10, and also boos angle from #6 to #10. There is no significant changes
Is the FLOW doesn't fit for stock 17.5 racing or I did something wrong with the setting??
Please help me guys, and thank's before

Merry Christmast!

Torque timing is only for Lrp motors.

How long is your track? The FDR combos you tried are way off for a 17.5 motor. Try 4.7 FDR as a starting point and work your way down until you start to get a drop off in power half way through your run, then go back a bit on the FDR.

I run 4.0 everywhere and just mess with the timing on the motor.

He's running boosted. 4.0 is more of a blinky gearing. To anyone running an Lrp 17.5 x12 what timing insert are you using along with what settings on the flow?

Always use the 4 Dot (27.5 degrees) insert with any sort of boosted racing with the X12.

What about for blinky 17.5 with the x12 and mod sedan with the x20 4.5?

I don't race mod, sorry. I use a X12 17.5 in off road blinky - I use the 2 dot insert. I'm not sure what insert you would use for on road sedan. The trick with the X12 is to run the gearing & timing that keeps the motor under 80 - 85 degrees c max (180 - 185F). You can't run very much ESC timing due to the fact that 27.5 degrees of endbell timing is the lowest you can go.
