I have a few questions ref my GT2, At the moment Im not running the pack of 4 power caps that came in the kit?? should I be and what difference will it make. I currently run 13.5 using an Sp motor. The power caps that came with the esc take up a lot of room is there any thing else I could use that is smaller.
Im about to start the indoor carpet season here in the UK, Racing 13.5 with rubber tyres any advise on esc settings Timing etc.

im gonna try 0 esc timeing and work on all gearing since thats what the GTB is no timeing advance on the esc. I see on the speed passion site there is a update for stock class its supposed to improve bottom end power from the speed passion site
For GT2.0 LPF and GT2.0 Pro:
New software version number "090312a" This is software had improve the bottom end power and top speed, special for stock class.
is the update worth spending the extra $30 for the pro programer?

RCP is a pretty tight and short track, I don't think your final drive should be less then 4.8. Put smaller pinion and keep trying.
150 degree on motor is fine...I think the sweet spot for the motor temp are 160-180....remember, you are still running 2 cell lipo.

Cap is a MUST HAVE...for simply a waranty issue, then the performance issue. I too extend the wires long enough so I can tape it on top of the servo, or on the side, or on top of the upper deck....
If it is too ugly for your taste...try the high cap, the flat one, that was designed for MOD motor, but it is ok to use for any motor turn.

Hey guys
I cant seem to find the led on the esc
but I did find a little red led inside the esc through a little hole
but why did they make it like that if we cant even see it?

So any answers to the question about Lipo cutoff working when running 1s? I saw the response regarding the cutoff not working if the ESC switch is off. But can you run with both switches on and have the cutoff work? I'm new to the 1s setup so I'm trying to wrap my head around how to get it to work. I'm going to be using the novak booster and I have the GT pro 2.0.
I believe the cutoff option is on a per cell basis (gonna use 3.0) but I'm wondering if it will detect 1s properly since the speedo is rated for 2-3 lipo cells.

Wether you have a SP or HW lcd programmer it will work with either software with HW seeming to have a more updated version.
The LCD programmer doesnt have finer adjustments but does have additional features.
HW software has a few additional firmware versions but i havent had a chance to try them to compare with SP versions.
The LCD programmer also keeps 3 different setups in memory instead of adjusting settings you can have these setups preprogrammed.
