Try these settings for 17.5 12th scale;

End RPM - 7500
Start RPM - 2xxx
Boost 55 (max)
Turbo - 0 (no turbo, ramp and delay settings not required)
Roll-out around 2.900" or 73mm, go up or down on roll-out to suit the track and driving style.
No timing in motor or center for the SPv3 motor. You could play with timing on this motor, the sensor plug all the way to right may be good.

Could really need some help with the setup of 212 version.rubbertouring.
17.5T duo2 motor timing allowed. raced this weekend and had no bottom or topspeed, and the temp was around 85C. my FDR 6,20.it was the first time i used 212. would be very happy if someone could post a setup for this.

have you tried hara's setup?

50 boost
12 turbo
5,000 start
17,000 end
ramp 2 or 3
.15 delay
minimum throttle 20

Gear around 5.9-6.2 and try half a tick of positive timing on the motor.

in WGT i ended up with 85mm rollout and 0 dot timing. i would guess maybe 95mm for 1/12? i got 170degrees after 5minutes, with other motors i am used to seeing lower temps like 150's but apparently LRP's run better at a little higher temp?

i tried the 3dot and 1dot and was really down on top speed, 1dot was better but 0dot was fastest. maybe i never got the rollout right with less timing, but i only had limited practice time.

Didnt someone say the set ups for 212 where the same as 208 and 203 for that matter. So why is everyone having such trouble with set ups with 212 their the same on all my stuff.

No idea. My setup is very similar ever since 203. Small changes here and there.

We were at a big race a couple of weeks ago when the first person helped set up the speed control and I remember him looking at the rpm perameters and saying that they were way out of range.
Looking at the set ups on the tekin site last night confirmed my rpms need to be looked at and you guys confirmed that as well.
Is that usally the case when you download a update that you would loose this area of the programing as it looks like all the other aspects were saved.

When you update your speedo all settings revert to the default of that firmware. After 203 (i.e., 208 and 212) the default RPM range was 5,XXX to 20,XXX.

Hey Randy just want to say the brakes are bloody unreal and the little update with the minimum and maximum setting for throttle and brakes make a great feel.... Thanks guys for a great update......

I have a question: On the v212 what is the "throttle minimum" and "brake minimum" purpose or used for?

Krio

It is used to adjust the feel of the throttle and brakes. The default setting (and what every version prior to 212 is set at) puts 1% throttle trigger movement to 1% power, 2% throttle trigger to 2% power, etc. For cars with low amounts of power and high traction this is just wasted throttle trigger throw that you would never use in a race and is taking away from the resolution at higher trigger throws. Setting the default to 20 or so takes the first 1% of trigger throw and is now applying, say, 7% power. This gives a stronger feel at low trigger throws and allows more precise control at higher power levels since so much of your trigger movement isn't taken up just getting enough power to the motor. The same goes for brakes; if you never need to use just 1% of brakes, then upping the minimum brake gives you more control at the higher braking forces and reduces your reaction time by removing a small amount of how far your finger has to move to achieve the braking or acceleration force you desire.

In general, low power and high traction means most people would benefit from a higher minimum brake and throttle settings. With higher power and lower traction set the minimum brake/throttle lower.

Thank you very much!!!! What a clear and precise explaination and in language I can understand! again thank you!

Your post made me think about a habit I have of programming my Tx at the highest possible throttle end point. For instance, my M11 throttle EPA goes to 140. So I program at 130, and then bump it to 140 to make sure the turbo is always activated.

For 17.5 in ultra high traction, maybe I should be programming at 95 or 100 and bumping to 105 or 110?

Hello

I will race in a carpet track with a straight line of 82ft.

I'll use a RS Pro esc and a Redline motor 6,5T with a touring car.
like to know a good setup for this track and features.

I will use the software 212.

Thanks in advance.
Best regards:
