Welcome to the world of 21.5 open ESC racing. You need to be spot on with gearing and esc timing to make them fast for 6 minutes.
For 80-90ft track we are gearing between 6 and 6.5 FDR.
Timing on the motor set to MAX
DDRS set to 7
Timing set to 1 below the MAX setting
Timing RPM start at 1800 RPM
SC timing set to 1 below the MAX setting
SC delay 0.2
and the #15 setting at 3 or 4
Above should last the 6 minutes without significant fade.
