R/C Tech Forums - Speed Passion Thread

Is there a time frame to get the Rev R in the US? I see there is limited stock on the main SP site. Ordering from them go well for us in the USA? Really like the looks of that esc for Mod Buggy and being an Apple guy using my stuff would be a big bonus.

Thanks

Reventon R with a 10.5T SP MMM

I got a Reventon R with a 10.5T SP MMM for my DEX410Rv3...seems very good. What I want to know is what is the best ESC setting/software to get the max performance out of the 10.5T?

Second, we want to start with a "stock" 10.5T 4wd Buggy class with no ESC "fiddling"...what would you recommend we load for that?

I have geared it with the standard spur and a 19t pinion, what would the optimum running temp be on the SP 10.5T MMM?

Looking at the gearing I think the 19t is way off... FDR of 11.3 which according the the sites I've looked at is no good for a 4wd Buggy with a 10.5T.

Looks like a 27t will give me closer to the suggested 8 FDR... Any comments?

$70 shipped for a top of the line ESC is madness. And hopefully here soon I can be a part of the madness.

It doesn't seem to be a matter of what's in stock since other items are shown despite being out of stock. Aren't 6.5-9.5T some of the most popular motors, especially for offroad classes?

MMM is based on ON ROAD race only...thats why 6.5 7.5 and 8.5 are not on the list.....

V3 comp series is still the best for off road, they mainly used the 6.5 7.5 and 8.5 version. The 7.5 and 8.5T motor can are without vent holes.

Thank you in advance.

Most ppl are running 205g that is will full dynamic timing setting....they don't need boost or turbo for that. You can find alot of setup like that on our website.

Hi all:

1. Has anyone used a silver arrow 2 with an external BEC? I assume there is no reason it wouldn't work?

2. Anyone tried one with a Thinderpower 8th motor? They are unusual in that they have timing on the motor, not sure if the esc can handle it?
