Hey,

I bought a speed passion Gt2 pro from A main , there's a warranty card in the box it says to send it to King golden ltd.
Have you guys done that or A main provide the warranty without any card ?

Thanks .

Speaking of V3 motors - when will they (10.5T in particular) be available for purchase ?
Cheers

I must say the new version 3 17.5 motors seem to work pretty well. I'm looking forward to running it at my home track so I can so some side to side comparison.

Alright, I got my GT2.0 hooked up in my buggy, and I have a few questions I hope can get answered:

1. For those Pro LCD Programmers, basically what the 1/8 scale Silver Arrow came with, will the ones on hobbyking work? Looking to pick up one where ever its the cheapest.

2. How necessary is the fan if you are running no hotter than a 13.5 motor in 2wd buggy?

Cain the Hobbywing lcd is teh same and has the safte firmware.
You can use on Hobbywing and Speedpassion esc's.
While the fan is not a necessity for stock winds i still prefer to use them.
It cant do any harm.

Questions??

Could somebody tell me if the new V3 13.5T will sell in HK or in other countries already?
I saw in rcmodel.com.hk just sold V3 motors until 11.5T but i need 13.5T.
Could somebody from SP tell me what is going on?

Best regards

Hi Adam,

What's a good starting point for SP 17.5 with GT2.0 ESC running in Xray T2'009?

I've been running this for a couple of months with mixed success, I seem to be down on speed compared to other cars. Currently have timing and DRRS maxed out with FDR around 3.6, temps always around 145 F.

Main track I run on has a couple of decent straights, other tracks are quite technical with not many straights.
What would you recommend for these tracks?

Thanks in advance.
