Not bashing the big orange but almost 5 months between press release and still no ship date is a bummer. But yes it's better to wait than to put it out early full of bugs.....remember the Havoc

Still waiting....

We are doing some final, local testing (WCRC); also, sending Kinetics to outside testers. Packaging is on the way and we have begun production.

So, it's starting to look promising.....

Charlie took several Kinetics to Cactus for some final race testing; feedback has been positive.

Charlie Suangka's Cactus Classic Update

Jeremy Fellas of the West Coast RC Raceway, and Team ICON Brushless Motors, took the Top Qualifying Honors in Both 2wd Stock (13.5) Buggy and 2wd Stock (13.5) Truck. Jeremy was also able to Take Home the overall Win in Both Classes, with 2 out of 3 of the Triple A Mains using Novak's Kinetic Brushless ESC.

In the 2wd Truck Division, there were 3 other Kinetic Equipped Trucks, ICON's very own Danny Stojachovic and fellow Team Mate Kevin Smit, as well as Team Novak Driver Bill Koch using a Ballistic 17.5 in the 13.5 Division! For Bill,
sometimes Slower is Faster.

Danny Finished 4th Overall, Kevin 6th, and Bill 7th.

Danny Stojachovic also finished 5th overall in the 2wd Buggy Division.

Bill Koch was able to place his Ballistic Powered 13.5 2wd Truck firmly into the 10.5 Truck A Final. After the 15 minute main event was complete, and some very dicey racing, Bill was able to bring home 5th place overall.

Danny, Kevin, Bill, and Jeremy all used the Novak Kinetic! Of the 7 Kinetic ESC's at the Event, all 7 were used to help the drivers make the A-Main.

Jeff Helms placed his Pro-2 Entry firmly into the 15 Minute A Main using a GTB with Ballistic 10.5. Local hot shoe Mac Mitchell was able to Bump Up from the B Final into the A final of Pro-2 using a Havoc Pro and Ballistic 10.5. The Novak
Powered Duo finished 7th and 8th.

From Everyone here at Novak Electronics we'd like to say THANK YOU for Choosing
Novak, and Congratulations!

Off road racing takes skill. How about sending some of these to some oval drivers that run there stuff to the ragged edge. That would be testing.

At what motor temperature does the thermal protection activate and does it simply shutdown the entire system or just change to more conservative timing parameters? This seems like a great feature and if implemented properly could allow you to achieve the absolute maximum performance from your motor. In situations where the motor gets very hot, does it just cut timing or shutoff completely? Do tell...
