The only reason I ask is because the way I have my GTB mounted in a TA05R I cannot see the LEDs. So after initially doing my throttle settings I'm wondering if I need to view the LEDs at another time. Normally I do not do custom profile settings nor will I be switching from Brushless to Brushed...
Thanks in advance Novak

From 13.5 to 3.5.
And I think it runs cooler to? (The ESC).

Does anyone knows if the GTB/SS13.5.5 Pro Stock Brushless System (P/N:3013) already come with the new GTB with Lipo cutoff?

Charlie,
I got your email about the NEW Test motors, but my return email bounced back.
Just wanted to say THANK YOU and I can't wait to get them on the track and do some testing.
I'm going to guess with that wind combo we're going to be looking at close to a 2100kV or rpm?

The new GTB/ss/lipo does not come with any system yet. I just got mine yesterday..awesome looking! Towers 13.5 was not the latest so I bought the ribbed pro 10.5 instead. (do not take that out of context 
)
Figured I'd end up with a 19t anyway.

Help!! I just installed a GTX with a 2-cell smart stop switch and I am setting up the ESC as per directions . It says to hold the button in before i turn on the speed control and wait for the red light to release and I did. But when I let go of the button a amber light appears next to the red light and it wont respone when I pull on my throttle to perform the set up? My steering works but nothing else. I don't have my charger yet for my li-po pack so I am wondering if the smart stop is interferring with this, it's a new pack and should have some sort of charge in it? Do I need to set up the ESC with the stock pack and disengage the smart stop? I just spent so much money on this stuff and it's not working. The sad part is I lost my reciept. HELP!!

"...............In addition, the GTB Brushless/Brush ESC includes Built-in Li-Po Cut-Off Circuitry, which monitors the vehicle’s Lithium Polymer battery pack’s voltage, and prevents the batteries from going below the critical safety voltage level (6.25 volts).........."
However, there is no garantee the place that you are going to buy (or you bought) are the latest batch of GTB that equipped with Lipo-cut off. If you have not bought yet, better purchase one from LHS and have them to test or confirm it in front of you..........I think that is the BEST way to get Novak Brushless system right now cause you will have 2 things to find out...(1) the BL motor are the one with ribbed case and sintered rotor...(2) the GTB with the Li-po Cut off...
Novak SHOULD add a label (sticker) onto the box and calling out these 2 update for customer....or they might already did that. And thats why they have the #1 support regarding the speedo and BL system.

I am running my TA05R with 4.5 and the worst thing....4800 LIPO right next to it.....G12314 was very lucky there was someone BRAVE enough to pick up his on fire ZX5 with 3200 LIPO right inside and take care of it...I am not sure there will be anyone @ hobbytown willing to do that, they would rather see my car on fire and explode...
What cause that happened..?
