Hi guys.

At this weekends race, i had a good speedo/motor combo, speed was perfekt with lots of low end punch.

But, at final 2 my car didn't come right of the start, the car moved a little, then stopped, and than again full power, I thougt it was because the car was pushed back just before the start.
But then at the start of final 3, when i hit full throttle the car just stutteret for a second, and then it went off, there was no problems under the race.

I use a GM120 in stock program 6, the sensor cabel is new.


Thanks

it'S certainly not a solder connection.

take the motor apart, and clean the Sensor pcb! dirt on that can cause those issues.
are you sure the gen90 was set to factory settings?

@abram

your transmitter values are extremely far off! you should check those

for stock racing I also suggest startamp = 120, currentlimit= 250, softgas = 50 (always!) and hard powercurve insteas of reserved 88 as that makes the motor run hot and drop off.

Martin, would you send me your GDA file for stock with LiFe and Pro 9,5?
BTW- how much does weighth your BD5 with 9,5 and life as rtr?
When you programm tx, how do you move throttle trigger-slow or fast to get best result?

Hi Martin!

My TX is 3pk with fast module, epa +/-100% and I use it for last 4 events.
Before change I used spektrum pro module with 3001 rx and data was:
FullThrottle=23402
NeutralPoint=16257
FullBrakePoint=9117

Now with 3pk@fast data is:
FullThrottle=22564
NeutralPoint=13588
FullBrakePoint=9768

This esc was used by my friend with his sanwa [email protected](sanwa system)
and data was (-/+ 100% epa like manual said):
FullThrottle=23005
NeutralPoint=14681
FullBrakePoint=10111

Maybe when I will have time I will set epa for 90% and check profile
with hard curve.

Problem is simple, manual from GM does not say it directly what this option
gives with another options as yoyu know, I drive for fun and now
my esc is set almost perfect, maybe I check more options.

Regards!

I'm pretty sure its in factory settings, I just put it in for two weeks ago, (because my gen120 stopped working) and there i set it to program8 , and for this weekends race program 6 was faster.

So i'm pretty sure yes.

Thanks for the help.

Cheers Matt.

I've downloaded and installed the 'VCP Driver Kit' for my operating system and re-booted my computer, but when i try and install the 'USB Driver Installation Utility Software AN335SW' an error message comes up saying 'Error reading "setup.ini"', anyone know how i get over this, as i thought that file was part of the VCP Driver Kit installation.
Cheers
