I personally like the green board so far for 17.5 blinky. I keep switching back and forth between the green and the yellow. Make sure you drop a couple teeth when switching boards and watch temps.

Alright, just so I am clear on this. The +10, +20, +30, etc All refer to the base timing? Meaning the stock red sensor board bumps the base timing up by 10 to start with and goes to 20?

There is base timing "built into" the motor that is always there no matter which timing ring you are using.

The stock board goes from +11-20*. The green board goes from +21-30*. The yellow board goes from +31-40*. And the blue goes from +41-50*. These are on top of the "built in" timing.

If you want to add 10* on top of the stock board, you should go with the green board.

I'm having the same issue with the Reventon S that i just got. Should I do the same thing and turn off the thermal protection?

You shouldn't run with the thermal protection on for any racing applications.

Glad that work............for your information, I don't use LIPO cuttoff as well. I pull off after 6 minutes no matter I am practicing or racing, I never overrun my lipo/car....turning that off will avoid the DNF while racing.
