While the Tx and Rx is switched on and connected to the servos, unplug the crystal... I'm pretty sure it'll go into fail safe mode. :nod: |
Talking of spektrum has anybody seem if the reciever fit in the 710?

Sow&Steady is using one in his 710.

Originally posted by markp27 Nice Alfa, Julius. I'm just back from Kirchberg track - long, almost 600km drive :cry: Lovely track - easy to start to drive on, but difficult to go fast. In qualifying, I went straight into the finals in 3rd place - despite the other guys using Lolas (only 3 of us were real men and used TC shells http://3hobby.net/images/blocks/shou...wistedevil.gif Final was a disaster, though. In my last qual session, I could feel the grip going away on my 37s - thinking they were starting to overheat, I thought I would run 40s in the final. Come the final, the car was far too loose - understeer and oversteer - it really wobbled left and right under power and braking. I had Rene running a couple of times to right my car or rescuse it from the grass and eventaully I had a problem with the power connector at the half ways point :( I had badly positioned the power cable connector and a tiny splash of fuel caused it to short and that was the end of my final. Rene agreed that I'd driven pretty awful in the final - I think it was 50% driver and 50% tyres. I just couldn't keep consistent with the low grip of the 40 shore tyres. I'd put two ok laps together and then three where I was missing the apexs, etc. Still it was great fun at the Kirchberg track - the Mega motor was certainly Mega!!! and Rene's pit and tuning work was first rate :nod: Big thanks to him for helping me out. I changed my tyers for finals from F37/R40 to F40/R42. I got the same result as Mark. We ware both dancing around the track. :nod: That was not all. When i finished the finals I allso noticed that on the lower back arm of my car the pivot ball was allmost pulled out. So my TOE-IN was around 6° on one back wheel. :weird: The engine not performed so well for me. It was going good only beyond 130°C. :confused: Does anybody know the factory settings for 201001 MEGA ZX-12 RACE engine ? The results are here It was long ride for you Mark. Did you came home before midnight? Best regards Ognjen |

Did you came home before midnight? Best regards Ognjen I think I just say made it back before midnight - it was a really long journey, but well worth while. Yeah, 40s were a bad choice yesterday - I think when in my last qualifying session the grip went away a bit, the track had become a little slippy and it wasn't that my tyres had overheated. Therefore the worst thing I could have done was to switch to 40s. I'm not sure of the factory settings for the ZX12 - I'll see if I can find out some info, though. Where you happy with your clutch setting at the end? Cheers, Mark. |
Where you happy with your clutch setting at the end? I adjust the spring preetension nut to the point where it begin to slip. Then i just unscrew a litlle bit, so the car realy explode when clutch engage. The clutch is set with hard 1.8 spring, black shue, 0.5 cluth gap, M3x4mm in fly weights and allmost zero endplay. I must say that engine runs whell. But the problem is temperature on which is runing. When I want to cool down the engine with openning the uper nidlle it yust bogs (fourstrokes) on the straight. But its OK in lower RPM:confused: Best regards Ognjen |

Hi I have a question for you the experts of this forum.
We have three drivers that are using Serpent 710 for the first time they where two Mugen MTX3 one TC3, they have decided not to use the serpent any more the reason is the following: • One is using a brand new JP FX 5 full option; the other is using a new Sirio (world Champion version) and the other a Nova Max S5. • All of them went they used this engines with the Serpent 710 their consumption goes high lest than 5 minutes in a very small track (they change the Leigh out with the same problem). • The part that makes this difficult to solve is that all of them when they install the same Engines in a Mugen or a TC3 their consumption goes above 6 minutes (same engines). They all had change to Yellow choose and 1.8 hard spring, they say that they are using .5 to .6 gap (can’t verify that) but the end play it is very small almost no play but it turns good. All of them had the Front Ball Differential with the (802145) Serpent Servo Lever Front Long + Diffring for 710 Install and the new tank with the gold filter. All the rest are the aluminum options, all had red spring front and rear. The question is, what could be the cause (setting) that can make the engine consume more because it is really estrange that this same engines in other cars have excellent speed and very good consumption. |

Originally posted by Pyramid Must richen LSN not HSN, you got it the other way around. The richer the LSN, it become more "life" It's true! I was closing the LSN. When I richen LSN, thus it become more"life" in top RPM? |
Originally posted by lagnaf Thanks Pyramid, It's true! I was closing the LSN. When I richen LSN, thus it become more"life" in top RPM? |
Originally posted by Julius By richening the LSN you'll have less heat and possibly better low end power. Because the engine get's less hot you'll be able to lean the HSN again giving you more top end power. Thanks Julius :D Will do that ... Best regards Ognjen |

I was really happy with mine - Rene did a great job of tuning my clutch and engine - ran really perfectly :nod: I think I owe him a crate of best Weizen from Bayern :nod: |
