Try adding brake via your Tx .
Or sounds like your diff needs to be tighter.

How long is the straight?technical? What software ?stock1boost or mod0? If you are running boost a 5.5 will be too much for a indoor track(if Is small indoor track) you may be better off with a 10.5 and some boost

So what would you suggest to set for small indoor track, 10.5, not long straight, stock1boost? On hobbywing was using 64 timing with no turbo, ~9 drive ratio.

Or I would use Mod1 with full timing and run 5.5 without boost and turbo....top driver run for small track. Boost is not necessary when running mod motor.

Yes, I am sure MOD1 with 5.5 is more then enough for your track. The beauty about MOD class is..you pick the motor that fits the track. You use boost ONLY when a 4.5 motor is still not FAST enough, mainly on a very large track. And using boost software is usually ONLY if you are limited to run slower motor but want to achieve the faster speed, for example, open stock class like running a spec 13.5 motor but with the mod speed....

If the track is small enough, you can actually get better lap time to run a 7.5 motor...play with the timing board on the motor as well.

Anyone have a Reventor R in orange they would sell. I had one in my cart from Speedpassion.net and then someone snaked out from me while I was browsing around.

Well, I was supposed to hear back about my warranty status yesterday on my Rev R in orange that died from the programming box. Not sure what happened there but if they refuse to fix mine you could swap cases with it at least :-)

I got the orange because it matches my Savox servos, now I've got a stupid hobbywing black ESC messing up the look of my car.

I bought an Xray T32012 and I have a Revetech motor that matches and I would like to keep it looking nice! The blue Reventon R would not be too bad and would match the blue on the motor, but if I switch motors then it will look out of place. I would buy it from you fixed, but not broken
