Tekin RS ESC sensored
02-15-2010, 06:33 PM
The Speedpassion runs best with 10 timing.
Gear lighter and set a higher start RPM.
The Tekin has standard timing of 12.
I love the Tekin motors. I don't no why but they drive very smooth.
I have a good feeling with the motor so I will also get a 13,5T.
The 10,5T is fantastic. I don't now how it is compared to the Nemesis and the DUO 2 but I think that it isn't a big difference.

OK guys, I have had such bad luck with this Tekin, and instead of buying another Novak, I got a 13.5 Redline that should be here Wednesday. What gearing and settings should I start with for a B44 on an indoor track, short straight very technical lots of jumps, high traction clay track??? Please, please help me here.
The question of not getting a 10.5 is I hope I can make this 13.5 hang with the norm 10.5 being used in mod 4wd at the track and to put the 13.5 in a 13.5TC car for outdoor on-road this summer.

I think you may be onto something here.
I have heard of RS Pro mod setups commonly use 2 caps, and with 13.5 laptimes being not too far behind mod laptimes in todays age with powerful lipos, it is a distinct possability that 13.5 now shares the same need as a mod motor in some situations where you are geared for speed...
I can see no harm in trying this if you have a spare one to hand Tim!
It would also make sense that not everyone has the problem too, as they may have an additional cap installed to cure the problem.

there could be so many variables in having bad brakes with this speedy. If all else fails, find someone who does have good brakes and copy their exact setup.
Maybe people could list their exact setups to randy, than the team could figure out certain combinations dont work well with the RS.

Was it a JR servo? We've had 3 different cars (all sedans running 17.5 or 21.5) locally with major cogging issues...tried at least 5 receivers, 4 different RS's, several motors, and too many sensor wires to count...the only thing that worked for all three was replacing the JR servo with something different (Futaba and/or Airtronics). The only I didn't try (from reading the last few pages here) was a receiver cap - I'll try one this week though, since I can't believe there is some inherent problem with JR servos.

i was only pointing you to where krio is most of the time and has a tone of offroad setups so you could get on there to get you started,no need to sound like a smart ass

What exactly is cogging? I was wondering if my car is doing it. when I slowly give it throttle at about 25% I get a noise that sounds like it is coming from the motor or the diff. almost like a vibration, just an odd noise but it is always at the same spot doesnt do it right at first just a lil bit in and it quits after that.

I wasnt being smart, you just pointed out what a dumb rear I was, and I didnt even realize it till you said something and I scrolled up to the top of the screen and seen the on-road, I felt about 2inches tall, and I about fell out of my chair. I am always lost somewhere.
