Tekin RS ESC sensored

Running a smaller pinion reduces motor/esc heat to a point, within the sweet spot only: if you too far beyond the sweet spot, then all you get is heat, motor heat when overgeared,and esc heat when undergeared... So far, run mod tc's , 4.5t motors seem to like 7.1FDR to 7.8FDR(Novak velocity); 3.5t motors like 8.4FDR to 9.3 FDR( Novak velocity) on big tracks, so I am somewhat guessing a bit that the 2.5t would like 9.6FDR up but not too far past 9.8FDR....Testing is the only way to know for sure, and I must also note that I am running a tc4 shaft drive instead of belt drive...If you can pull it off, you will have the fastest car on any track for sure, but I doubt that it will be faster than a 3.5t with decent top end timing...

The issue is from a standing start and as mike pointed out it is touring car. Motor is a 17.5 Reedy. Although in this case motor is irrelevant as it does the same thing with a revtech, duo3, and duo 2 motors.
Drive mode sensored only
Motor direction normal
Throttle profile 5
Current limit off
Throttle minimum 10
Drag brake 5
Brake strength 100
Reverse speed 100
Neutral width 10
Push control off
Brake minimum 10
Start rpm 5443
End rpm 20016
Turbo delay .5
Turbo ramp 1
Turbo 0
Boost 0
If there is a way to adjust the rpm range it is not in my version, or at least I don't see that option.
Also I have two tekins and they both exhibit similar reactions to immediate throttle input, both on the track and on the bench. I can physically see the hesitation from throttle input to car reaction. This problem only exists on my tekins...LRP and Speed passion do not do this.

you adjust the rpm range by clicking the entering an new end range manually, you then click calculate and it will give you a list of start rpms to pick.

In blinky mode you can not adjust the start and finish rpm. I believe those figures are fixed, hence blinky mode. I have been using 212 Software successfully here in Australia in 21.5 blinky mode class.
Although I do not use drag brake, set at 0, push control at 20 and Throttle profile at 4.

Throttle profile 5 Change to 3
Throttle minimum 10 Change to 15-20

I'm looking for a bit of gearing advice! I've been running a GM 13.5 with my RS Pro geared at an FDR of about 8.0 (turbo of about 10 and boost of about 40-45). That setup worked great but now my club rules have changed and I've got to go blinky. What should I change my gear ratio to for a new ball park figure - it's a smallish indoor carpet track.
Thanks in advance

Have a little issue. Running this esc with my lrp x12 and the boost setting doesnt seem to work if i have no turbo setting. Was trying to run just boost but it doesnt seem to work unless i run some turbo. Sonething im overlooking?

Only time this problem occurred using an RS - 1s, was with a Revtech, and a rec pack solved it

Why would I be kidding? There is a reason behind my asking him to change it. If his delay is gone or improves than progress was made.
What most don't realize is that the BEC, rx pack or booster supplies power to the sensor systems as well. So should that voltage be lower than the threshold the RS will start the motor sensorless and pick up the sensors while the car is rolling. This WOULD cause a delay.
Using an aggressive throttle profile with motor timing set high and in blinky mode will be the worst case scenario. Especially in pan car where the ratios approach 1:1 in gearing.
Trust me, I know what I'm doing.

Where are your start and end rpms set to. Turbo is not required to boost a motor.

this is what im fiddling with right now but the 10 turbo made a much bigger difference than the boost amount. seems like it should be the other way around.
