I had the same sensor board problem. I emailed them through www.r1wurks.com. They responded little slow but they changed the sensor board under warranty. It took some times but they have a great customer service. Just wait.....

Is it easy to change the sensor location on the board? I tested a motor and the timing came back as A:32 B:40 C:40

Not easy on this type of board.

I have dynoed motors with boards with 0 degrees up to 6 degrees variance and if set on a motor checker at the same average timing will result within 1 watt difference on a 17.5.

That is about 1.3% power difference.

What timing & FDR for V16 for 17.5 TC stock. Asphalt track 100' straight with a technical layout?
Motor came with 43* timing. Usually run 4.0 FDR.

For shorter tracks the 1700+ rotor is the way to go a larger track likes the standard roto

Start it at the 43 timing and check temps if they are low you can bring timing up

I am a bit confused about the timing.
I have a 25.5 V16 and from what I have read, I should put the timing at 30 degrees. Correct me if I am wrong.
and this timing where should I read it? on the can, on the motor analyser or on a motolyser?
P.S. I run on a carpet track 80X40 with an F1
Thanks

For the 21.5 motor, how many amps should the motor draw max?
