Tekin RS ESC sensored
04-04-2011, 11:31 AM
Greets all,
Ran my RSpro this weekend at a local club, and in the Amain I was hit hard into the first turn. After that I noticed the car was really sluggish and had no ramping at all. I check the mechanics of the car but everything was rotating freely. I sort of remember it being talk about that settings could be scrambled if the esc experienced a hard shock or impact. Due to time constraints, I was unable to reapply the settings and test on the track. Any thoughts about settings being scrambled? I will also check try replacing the sensor wire if reapplying the settings doesn't work.
cheers

Most likely it's a bad sensor wire, or if you less lucky, the sensor board in your motor went bad (was it a Duo3 by any chance? They're known to have crappy rear plate designs that damage the sensor board on impact).

Let's look at it this way....
A plane's "black box" is a digital recorder of flight data and cockpit voice recordings. If data was simply "scrambled" during a big impact, then any data garnered from a plane crash would be useless.

Yang is right, settings in the RS won't go "scrambled" if you wreck.
Clearly you lost your sensors in some way, motor, harness, esc.
Use the RS's sensor checker to figure out what is the cause.

4.5 mod setup
Hi all
Looking for a setup to run 4.5 turn mod in TC onroad, any one have one they have been using.

Gary

Looking for some throttle help. I'm looking for more initial throttle, and instant punch I'm not sure how to make my adjustments on my Tekin RS, and radio. I run 17.5 no boost. Thanks in advance.

You can try a little more motor timing, higher number on the minimum throttle, or try a more agressive throttle profile.

Just this weekend I ran my Tekin RS in 17.5 Non ramping. Once the tone rang I pulled the trigger & my car stood still till I got rammed & the car started running. I did run some warm up laps before, so I wonder why I had this issue. Any ideas? I had full timing on a D3 17.5 motor.

Is there any phone or tablet computer that supports HotWire?
