I've reloaded the software multiple times and brakes are the worst i've ever had.

I have too. my issue is also the brakes. but i don't think the progam is working properly. when I use the up and down arrows to adjust settings it goes to the "curves" screan,if i use the sliders they will adjust. and once i had an "active braking" slider and then it dissapered

Ran my updated RS's today and they felt really good! The change to the throttle response is subtle but good. It made keeping the car under control when it is right on the edge much easier. This was for pan car and F1. The guys running TC at our track ended up turning down their brakes by at least 1/3rd maybe even 1/2 as they had even more brakes than ever before.

FYI on the question for the 17.5 boosted. FDR i run between 6.17-6.44, use the Hara setup but i reduce the max rpm to 18500 however keep 5XXX rpm, motor timing is 1st notch - i think that is 4 deg, maybe i will try second notch next time if i this will give me more initial pull?. turbo up to your liking. typically motor temp is around 65-70 deg C. i run zero drag brake and 100% regular brakes in the hot wire. as i stated before my first impression of 222 compared to 212, the 212 more initial brakes, bites very fast and can lock up, i am quite sensitized to it, but 222, must push the trigger further behind, but brakes still good, not complaining. so, to obtain the same quick feel i like, i just set it on my transmitter.

can anyone suggest a basic setup for 10.5 t on road? our longest straight is 80 ft with FDR varying between 7-7.6 depending on esc/motor/car and driver. thanks.

Ok i have noticed something on the brakes. if you don't get into the turbo the brakes work fine, if you get into the turbo the brakes don't work as well.
with the progam some of the stuff is half hidden.ie.motor select(i only se the "BR") and tubo delay(I only see the .5 if I go lower on the time i only see.0).
Is this normal

The turbo delay goes by .05 intervals. which i use exacly that .05 starting at just over 3k rpm. end rpm 22k

and the BR you see is brake and reverse. i always use FW because it seems smoother when reverse disabled. and you not allowed reverse anyways. but if you want reverse i suggest "DL" wich is delayed reverse

My first experience with v222 yesterday on my blinky WGT car was without issue. Just as fast as ever. But, I don't need to use brakes in my WGT carpet racing.

Throttle is noticeably smoother beyond belief. Speed i image wouldn't be different because of the 'spec' mode. but smoother is smoother and for blinky I'd run 222 in a second. just running boost with a 80ft straight on carpet with abrupt chicane at the end, brakes are needed to be on the dot. there is more then enough brakes for blinky.

Running 222 this weekend in 1/10th touring I found I had no brakes going from full speed. Going into slower turns I did though

Setup was Tekin RS Pro coupled to a SpeedPassion MMM 13.5t

Gearing at 7.12

Speedo -

Boost 55
Timing 80
Turbo 15
Ramp 3
Delay 0.2
Min brake 5
Max brake 100

The track had a 34ft straight into a hairpin. On braking the car just carried on forward, just didnt slow at all. I ended up having to almost hand brake the car into the corner (turn hard while braking to scrub out speed). On other turns the car would slow, but I was also braking while turning again.

Is it simply with the car going so quick that the brakes just can hold from the speed ?

I was going to toy with adding another cap on the speedo but didn't have the time to fit it safely.

Any ideas ?

thanks

I posted about this Saturday night after my race with a 80ft straight. i only run 1 cap, could another cap help with braking? if so i think i may rig up a row of like 5 caps and 2face tape it beside the esc.

Anyways post it in my thread http://www.rctech.net/forum/electric...-problems.html

randy has responded and i hope if we get enough complaints we'll get something to help. but you must like how smooth it was though!!

Default TP1 and "Locked Spec"

Selecting TP1 w/o hotwire and "Locked Spec" via hotwire,
Do they have identical parameters between each other as blink mode?

Locked spec from what i read is exact to blinky EXCEPT you need to hotwire it to get it out of locked spec so you cant cheat at the track after spec and pop it into boost then back off boost after the race. just a better feature to keep spec racing true. i like it

Is there supposed to be an "Active Braking" slider somewhere? Coz mine does not have that slider as well. What does it do?
