Trinity 13.5 Maxzilla: fdr?
Hi all,
I'm searching for a good starting point fdr and timing for this motor, I run in a small truck and I arrive to 4 fdr with o timing on endbell but the motor has a weak acceleration and it's still cool. I'm running touring blinky. Any suggestions? I should go even more down with fdr? Thank you very much. |
How does your speed compare on the straight? What is your current gearing?

The timing should max out somewhere around 24 degs on the endbell, that is where I would run it.
FDR on a small track will be around 4.5 in a tc. You will want to use a fan on the motor and check the motor temp after a minute or 2. Turning the timing down will help with temp if its getting hot. |

The gearing is 3.97 with 0 timing |
Do as Josh suggested. Start around 4.5 FDR and crank up the can timing. It should give you faster acceleration and probably won't lose much top speed.

NItrox416;11944891]But my endbell has only 20 deg of max timing. I will try 4.5 fdr but temperature, also with 3.97fdr, don't seem to be a real problem. Maybe because I was setting improperly my motor?
Thanks everyone for help |
I have 5 dgrees end bell. Timming with a mod race profile has given me enormous top end and plenty of bottom end..
