R/C Tech Forums - The Speed Passion Thread

I have read (more skimmed) this thread and my understanding is that the latest GT2.0 blue speedo comes with the 205G software and that I should be looking at going to 312 for 10.5 rubber on carpet - does this sound right?

Can I ask what 312 gives over 205G?
If I am going to use 205G (until I get a programmer) what settings are best for 10.5?

Your need about 200 foot straights for the software to be productive

I needed the 371 to keep up with the SPX boys on a track with 100' straight. Without it I had to gear very heavy, losing infield rip. I tried every software and found the 371 to be the best for stock motors.

I haved put in mine the 323 , and i need to gear my car high so i can have a good top speed. ( and the timing max on the esc )
I am using 116T with 27T at the moment . I used to have it like that for the 4T Ver 2 motor but now with the 4.5T Ver 3 with the same gearing i loosing alot in the straight.
I will put a 29T on sunday to test it and i hope it will be the same .
Our straight is near 200 feet .

They fixed my speed control , and shipped it back to me in a week ( i live in Greece , Speed Passion service is in Hong Kong ) with no charge at all.
I had a problem with the sensor cable and also the speed control wasnt doing any sound.
They replace the electronics from inside the esc ( gt2 pro ) and change also the bottom case ( clear one now ) and now i can see the red and green light very clear :).
Also i would like to say thanks to Shawn and Adam for helping me ( Shawn forward my emails to Speed Passion ) .

By the way a tip to everyone , dont try to stop the car by putting your finger to the spur gear :blush: its painful :nod::cry: .
I lost control of the car trying to set it up ( make a mistake at the settings ) and the car went full throttle. I tried to grab it and the middle finger of my right hand got stuck in the spur gear , nearly lost it . ( my finger not the car :smile: )

Could you show picture of your Clear case ?

and what is your esc temp running 4.5T ?

Pics i can show tomorrow , today that i tried it at outside track the esc was running at 45C - 50C .
Outside temp near 30C.
But i dont have the stock capacitor , ( not by choice because after the service the forgot to send it back ) i use a losi 8200μf 16V.
But also the 4.0T Ver 2 i was using before the service the temps was around the same with the stock capacitor .

Is it possible to remove the stock capacitor on the sp GT2.0 esc when you are running lipo 40C+.
Any losses in performance?
higher temps?

Guys...what are these 205, 731, 371 software that you guys are talking about..? I can only see there are 312 (stock) and 323 (mod) from SP website...

And someone mentioned using 371 for stock, where can I download that.?

Must be something I am missing...thanks all.

The capacitors are included on ALL brand ESC's for a specific reason. I highly suggest you always run the cap no matter what brushless ESC your running.

ok, so first post into here... but a quick pic of my new setup for the indoor season. GT2.0 Pro with a Comp3.0 10.5t... it's looooow :lol:

Won't get it on track for a bit, as I've still got to build up the shocks on the car, but itching to give it a try... LCD box is on the way too :D

Gidday,

I would really like to know what all the programes mean and do. We need a table which shows what programmes are available and what they do.

thanks

LPF

I'm wondering why most people still purchase the pro version, when they are only running 17.5/13.5/10.5 . Wouldn't the pro be overkill for these applications?, or is it that the lpf is slower for spec racing?
