Tekin Rs/Rs pro V2.03 offroad setups only
Has anybody tried the newest version for the Tekin RS's?? In particular, what are you setting for End RPM, Start RPM, and Turbo Ramp!!!!
This will be for a 13.5 and a 10.5 motor in a XXXT-CR and Blitz. If you would include your entire speedo settings I would welcome them.
Thanks

2.03 is out. Hey randy do you have any tips for the rpm settings yet?

We are still gathering feedback from our offroad team drivers. In general you can start with your 198 or 200 setup. Add boost and drop pinions from there. With the new rpm ranges for timing boost being user selectable you can get it done without turbo in most cases. Turbo can be a little unsettling in 2wd offroad.

A lot of good info in the onroad section in the RS thread about this new software. About 20 pages of Tech in the last 48 hrs.
Something I found out is if your running only Turbo in V200 it will not work in V203. I have to run some Timing Boost to get the Turbo Boost to work.
My CLiff notes from the other thread:

My CLiff notes from the other thread:
Low RPM should be your slowest corner exit?
High RPM should be highest infield speed?
Turbo should hit on the straight at about 110% of high infield RPM?
Ramp would be determined by how tight the track is?
Initial timing should be as low as possible, 5 degrees?

Here's some tip on finding the right setup for your motor.
First of all, forget turbo. Makes it more confusing and harder to figure out whats doing what.
Second of all, you will need to figure out at what rpm does your motor start to lose torque without any added software timing. This is exactly the rpm the esc should start advancing timing. To do this, start at around 8,000rpm or so and go down 1,000 or 500 rpm at a time until the best acceleration rate is found. The end rpm while doing this should be set at about 20-30k depending on motor wind with lower winds at the higher rpm range.
Third is the tricky part. Some motors loves to rev till the heavens come down and some don't. Just remember that topping it off too early will give too much timing to the motor and topping it out too late is just a waste of available timing. Again, start with a high number, say 20,000 rpm and work your way down/up from there.
Then comes turbo. Set it as you would previously. Let the turbo kick in as the car reaches max speed without turbo. This would depend highly on track layout and straight length. Start with 1 sec and work down from there.
Remember, tuning your esc is like setting up the car. One change at a time.

Widening up the timing boost start/end rpm will effectively change the "ramp rate" of timing boost.
SO if it' narrow like Yang has it, he's preffering that narrow powerband. This would make sense to me because he's on carpet and he races onroad a lot mroe than I do.
I prefer it to be have more "spacing" for lack of a better term, especially in offroad. In offroad(my forte) the narrow start/end rpm is TOO much power and simply lights up the
