Well, I'm not really sure with the SS motors. The timing is changed by turning the colored ring & there's no timing marks. Not sure what's considered zero timing. So I just set it half way between. That might be zero, or advanced. I really would like to know where zero timing is on these motors.

Reduced Timing

Novak normally sets there motors for "30" degrees. But, I found when using their ballistic motors, going below "15" degrees, the motor starts to cog. So, I actually think their 30 might be closer to 15to20deg.
When I ran my WGT car yesterday, I had problems with my car being really slow, so I moved the timing ring to the fully reduced timing setting, and the car really picked up pace.

So, I have been working with a CRC WGT car over the last couple of weeks, and I have been trying to figure out some speed. This following setup is not perfect, but its REALLY close. Very similar to my indoor setup, but I have a 13.5 motor, changed rollout, and bring the timing in at a higher rpm.

will probably order one of these later, silly question but how do you connect them up? does the black simply go to the negative battery lead and the red to the positive? the instructions are poo!
That's a very good question the power caps are very important but there is no where on the instructions to say where to solder them on. I know most rc apt people would have an idea. But a novice could do some proper damage,and I think should be added even a separate slip off paper with instruction's how to connect the power caps on would be better than guessing.

I just put a new 120a 1S HW ESC into my 12th scale pan car and attached it to a Speed Passion 4.5 (v3).
Do I need to update the ESC before I run it, or will it be okay for the mod motor right away?
