Gentlemen,
with above setup, I tried 6-1-1-2-2-2-0, but car would keep shutting down / resetting about half-way thru the heat.
Thus, I tired 6-1-0-0-NA-NA-0 (no boost or turbo, kinda like blinky but using V4.0 s/w. Unfortunately, the car would stop, after a short break, say 5 secs, the car would go again, almost as if the ESC was resetting itself.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks!

Hey, guys I wanted to share some information. I figured out a simple solution for the motor temp cutoff problem with some sub/non standard motors that have a incorrect value thermistor.
The one i had problems was from Robitronic/Exceed.
The fix is simple, just cut the marked wire on a sensor cable.
You won`t have a motor temp check anymore, but most ESCs dont monitor it anyway.

I shoe goo'd my cap to the side of the heat sink. I've run it like that in mod and have had some big hits and it hasn't moved. Clean both surfaces first.

Hi guys
We are having our national event next week. Testing my Flow with x20 in 17.5 boosted, it looked like my turbo never activated. Here are the settings I ran. 0.5.5.8.8.5.0 with 30 deg motor insert. Was I "over timing" the motor ? Please give your suggestions please.
Yokomo BD7 fdr 6.6 . The car was strong out of the corners but that was it.

I have ver 5.0 stock firmware. One question.....is the boost slope / activation the rate at wich it applies the boost timing? Also, is there also a max amount of degrees one has to use . Example...boost timing + torque timing + turbo = 64 deg?

I do not have a switch and have no issues. But i think the flow differs in the way you need to remove the switch. I think you need to leave the contact 'open' en stead of closed to have the esc 'on'

LRP Firmware update warning!!
As far as I know, this info is not available online and according to LRP, this is the reason why my ESC was resetting / shutting down all the time.
Was the community aware of this?
Thanks.

Sent it in to LRP and they provided me with the following warning/reset procedure when changing firmware...
