And I have not try Short Course Master....but I will guess the same thing. And I would not recommend that....the ESC is designed to run on 2S.

Thanks.

Anyone have a good setup for the mmm 17.5 ?? ( non timing - "blinky" on a somewhat large carpet track , flowing and fast but still technical layout )
Timing and FDR settings ! I ran it once at 4.0 FDR and full ( 20 degree ) timing. It was very fast early but faded too much. Unfortunately I don't get enough test and tune time between races...

i have not rum much with with out using timing but i would suggest starting at a FDR of 5.5 and see what happens just keep dropping a few teeth at a time and check the temps.
with my old V3 i was running a FDR of 4 and now have a FDR of 7.3

Hi there,

I was wondering if I can obtain a GT 2.0 housing replacement any where or from SP themselves? Mine's held together with tape ATM coz I was too harsh on the clips.

Thanks

I have been experimenting with different firmware On the GT 2.0, and loaded some of the latest hobbywing settings on to try, problem is now I can't seem to load SP firmware back on, keeps coming back with message saying unable to upgrade. Any suggestions?

I have been running the citrix short course esc and v2 17.5 in my blitz and took it out tonight for an oval race. I was running max timing on the esc and added some more timing via the motor (estimated 10-15Degrees). Now I knew I was pushing the limits and it failed on me as i was leading the amain lol...greed sux.

I was considering going with the same setup since they are on sale, but then I was looking at the 17.5 mmm. How good is this motor? can it be paired with the short course esc?

Im trying to find a good 17.5 setup without breaking the bank. Anyinput would be great

Go to the 205_mod and then upgrade it on the sp software.

you want to coolem before a race ? try spray freeze , lol. then come in at 4 mins and spray again. i am joking.

mattwoodcraft 12-04-2011 12:08 AM

thanks mate, so they can be used on brushless

TeamWTF 12-04-2011 12:39 AM

Ive seen guys use them... They seemed to work very well to cool the motor. I cant remember exactly, but I think it dropped the temp around 10deg or so.

Its getting hot here also... Track temps should be hitting 60c soon enough :(

mattwoodcraft 12-04-2011 04:00 AM

great thanks i used a long time ago with brushed but i thought i would ask befor buying another fan. thanks 10 degrees is always a good thing when its hot for sure

I just purchased a used gt 2.1 prostock. I believe it was used for non boosted 17.5 off road. Do I need a laptop to tell what software it has and change it for boosted touring? I have the pro lcd box and software..

mattwoodcraft 12-04-2011 11:41 PM

to dee what software it has connect the box it will tell you what firmware the speedy has.
if you want to change the firmware you will need to use a lap top and down load the pc interface.

all the info is on the speed passion web site with vidio support aswell

Try 4.75 final with 30* green board (all the way to 30*).
