Yep, seen it happen many times. Just keep hitting it until it takes it.

I've never run 1s but when I went to make some adjustments I found that it was checked. I unchecked it and applied. NO luck. I tried a different computer with the same result. I re-updated the esc with 203 and the problem went away. Hasn't happened since.

Hi Guys...

Nice work at the Birds....

Big thank you to the guys at tekin for all the good work on v203... It is awesome....

I have a quick question....

With all the indoor racing thats going on, im wondering what would be the starting starting for a really big out door track... Looking at 190-200' (55 Meter) straight away with a flowing midfield.... Running a Tekin Redline 10.5T.

See link here...

or

Im also just wondering what you guys are finding with adding a little amount of motor timing.... I am finding this helps pulling out of the corners quite withought scarifying the Mid range.. Any thoughts?

Thanks guys

Hi guys, have anyone of you had one of the posts fall off?
Reason i ask is, i recently purchased an RS about 3weeks ago had been running it in my T3 very successfully i may add( thanks tekin for an amazing product ) and then in the main today after about 5 laps my tekin came to a complete stop, toasted motor and all. Have any one of you guys have ever experienced this before with the tekin and how do i go about handling this?
BTW this isn`t my first tekin speedo, i got 4 of them.

Never seen that before, but I would recommend contacting Randy at Tekin. I'm sure he could help you out.

The post's are soldered on, so if it got really hot from something I can see how it could "fall off".

The Dr Speed motor from an other club member has no problems with the Tekin.
It could be the rotor. You won't see if it's ok or not but that can give the problem.
but the team power motor just working fine for some other esc except tekin.

A solder post came off? That's not common at all.

We did very well at the 2010 Snowbirds. I will be getting all of the Tq and winning setups from the drivers in the next few days.

We are looking into the setting storage issues. So we're listening to what combinations seem to cause them.

The Hotwire will not work on windows CE, sorry.

now if we could just get them back in stock for us true believers..

about them setups.. not to harp on it, but finding posted setups still seems to be a pain.. any chance of grouping them by class, motor and surface somewhere? the facebook page we still have to click through a bunch of thumbnails to find what were looking for..
