12th is not so popular here seeing its not any cheaper than TC.
We are looking at getting a class together but with a control/spec esc and motor. So far looking at the LPF/Hobbywing 60amp with Roar 13.5

Haven't a clue as have never used it was on the original ********* software before upgrading to 1.32, however, corretc me if I am wrong, but I think the 1.31 has ver 323 which some people are saying is a good non 'turbo' version.

Personally I like 110 with DDRS IX but then I am kinda trigger happy coming off a 10.5 Fantom Ion Pro at around 120 Degrees F geared at 6.2 (ish) FDR Large carpet track with long straight into long long sweeper.

OK, now when you say "turbo"function are you telling me that the newer profiles have "turbo" in them you just can't adjust them like the others on the market? This may sound dumb....but you can actually hear a major increase in power and not just a linear power line when you pick the car up and give it hell?

I am currently running the 323 in my 415 MRE with SP 2.0/17.5 Novak ribbed can motor with the drive at 3.96 with an 88/50.The motor comes off around 140 after 5min. The "timing" adjustment on th motor is cranked all the way up and I run the DRS at max and the amts at 26.2whatever. At my club everyone runs top notch equipment in my class so I am going through this battle of being scooped up in the sweeper after the straight. Our track is fairly small at 75x40 It seems I have tried every pinion in my arsenal in cluding someone elses 50 tooth pinion. I really like running this speedo and would love to not have to jump on the band wagon with getting a new speed controller.

All and All I really wish my LCD box would get to the shop where I ordered it from so I can do some testing on my own.

Any info would be much appreciated.

from my limited use of the 110 software I have found that it has a heck of a lot more top end, needing to be geared down 5 or 6 teeth on the pinion. While it does not have the 'step' like my RB30 it does 'come alive' on the straight it 'almost' keeps up with the SPX' being run at my club and here is a laugh but I ended up with a motor teardown at scrutineering last meeting, because I wasn't running one of the 'usual' suspect speedos so someone obviously thought I was running a lower wind motor.
For a 'free' upgrade give the 107 or 110 profiles a go and smile sweetly because it hasn't cost you a penny more. Just watch the FDR and watch the temps especially on 107, 110 little more progressive and runs little cooler too. Just remember that you will not have a surge of Turbo more a much faster top end reached a heck of a lot quicker, I personally find it easier to drive that the RB30 as that is like a light switch at 95% throttle and it is easy to hit the turbo if you floor it out of a corner. ********* / SP all the way and roll on the 'proper' turbo software which I am sure the guys at the factory are working on.

I will be trying 110 this week on SP V3 17.5 motor... what motor have you tried 110 with and can you please share your FDR...

currently I am happy with 107 geard at 4.3-4.4 on SP V3 17.5... but would like to see what 110 would do

Thanks
