Hi,
Is they are someone else who are running 17.5T Blinky with the Orca VX VRITRA ? Before, I was running a Tekin RS (very brutal but seen to have more top speed).
For now I have :
Innital brake : 30
Drag brake : 0
Brake Freq : 1k
Punch : 10
PWM : 8k (Maybe try 32k ? Does that make a big difference ?)
Motor : Novak Ballistic

I was able to gear my car to the point where it was too fast and needed to slow it down.. Also noticed the temps on my motor were much lower than with my old RS, I calibrated it and uploaded the 3.0 and it was perfect with default settings but I'm going to get some help with the settings when I start racing outdoors this coming Saturday.

Anyone know what is the size of the thru-hole on the PCB for Battery & Motor connection ? I want to know if QTEQ connector will work on Orca VX-1.

Definitely have the wrong gearing or something!!

i'm running between 4 and 4,5 FDR.
I've run this week-end and it's was better ... I remove timing on the motor (Ballistic) and it's start to work's pretty good.

( thunder power 17.5 35 degrees timing) the motor doesn't even get hot to touch but if I geared lower it would be to fast for a small track with a lot of turns...
Go up in pinion size and watch temps and you'll be a lot faster, don't go above 160-170 degrees

Hey all, was just after some advice. Is it possible to use the new orca vx1 esc for 2 cell mod touring? All the parameters seem the same as the vx and the only thing I can really notice is the lower heat sink so I guess heat might be an issue. Any thoughts would be great.

Does this speedo have solder holes like Lrp or posts like orion R10? What does the back end of the speed control look like?

I went to the Orca web site and I cant find the specs for each esc. It gives some detail but not motor limit or Amp output. I would like to have more details before investing in a new product.
Also more info on the interface. I hear about a chip and a usb. Do I need to buy something to program the esc? I guess i just need to call. Feels so old fashion.

over 4.5 turn motors
peak curent of 720a
etc...
you will need to buy the usb link to upgrade to the 3.0 version, but i think they all come w/ that now anyway.
you will need to buy the program card to program the esc to your liking. the esc is so nice, you won't hear anyone complain about it. Very smooth, easy to program w/ card, no need for computer.

On another note, on my way to the track this morning I spilled my 20oz coffee while driving, with my car on the passenger seat and you know the rest. Thought it was going to be out of service but I plugged it in and it was fine ( smells like coffee though). Because it works after literally getting soaked in coffee, I will buy another just to have
