Sorry i re-read my previous post and it doesn't really make that much sense. Ok, so I got the esc off my mate and after doing the esc to receiver bind and setup(with my Spektrum radio gear) it just wont make the motor power up(run) If i disconnect the sensor wire the motor will run for about 3 seconds and then it(17.5) just cogs. I've read the paper sheets that come with the esc and it says that th esc is in sensor-less mode so that makes sense. Just need to know how to get it out of that setting. It was purchased from Hobbies crazy on Ebay not long ago and I live in New Zealand so I cant really just take it down to my local hobby store and the response time from emails from Speed Passion is to say the least, pathetic. Most of the time I dont even get a reply. I dont have a local hobby store unfortunately.

So I threw my SP V3 1S 13.5 in a boosted class this last weekend (ROAR Region 11 Champs) and I could not get the Tekin setup to get that motor working well at all. I was destroyed on the straights no matter how much boost/turbo, and any config I tried (different RPM range, delays, etc...) and a bit soft on the infield. and almost never got even above 145*.
Any real advice would be good on what kind of a boost profile (generally) is used for the V3 1S motors better. or if a different rotor is the key, or what...
Because this thing is a dog otherwise...

Solara, I can gear up, and yes it makes the motor hotter, but it bogs like mad coming out of corners. Adding 2 teeth cost me almost 2/10ths of a second in lap times, but did make my motor hot!...
Seems weird how odd these motors are about gearing and timing. No setup from a Reedy, TP, RevTech, Duo, etc... seems to work on these, or even close to working.
