I guess possibly 130 ish if you were running hard and geared really aggressively. Kinda depends on the car and gearing to get a better answer. But as long as you are around 130 you should be pretty good.

Default Need some help

I'm running a ftSC10 with a prostock speed control and 17.5 ultra sportsman. I run the stock sc class at trackside in Milwaukee and do ok. Anyway I am currently running the 508 program to get blinky mode. I have been seeing a lot of other options but I'm not sure if any give blinky. I need blinky but it seems some of the newer programs are offering more/better power and or smother operation. So what are the options?? Will I see any difference? This combo has been great and I'm wondering if it could be better.
Thanks for the help!

Blinky is blinky no matter what speed control. ROAR tests all the blinky software to ensure all speed controllers running blinky software are playing on a level playing field. There maybe some variation in the software, but probably not enough to give one ESC over another an advantage. For the most part, smoothness is what most racers are looking for.

I suggest trying out the Speedpassion MMM 17.5 motor. You should be able to gain some performance by adjusting your timing. The ultrasportsman is locked timing where the MMM is adjustable. You can also play around with different timing boards and rotor diameters to fine tune power and efficiency.

Mark,
Thunder is right. a 12.5mm rotor will provide more torque and adjustable endbell timing will add top end speed. Talk with Ryan Pratl on a series day or the spektrum race. I know he races therd alot and can answer questions in person if you want.

Ok. I was just reading back and see that there is 323,328,& 428 for stock. I was just wondering if theses were different/better then the 508 software. I'm not even sure my gt prostock 2.1 even uses the other software. I gotten a little better lately and I'm really starting to notice little changes I make. I was just wondering if these would make any changes that might help.
Thanks again
Mark

They will but they are not blinky firmware. So not legal for stock. They have all the boost and turbo settings on them. There is only one version of blinky. Now the motor and gearing is where you will find speed and power.

So 328,323, & 428 all have no blinky setting in the programming?? If that's the case I have to stick with 508 then.
Thanks

What's the motor limit (ESC advance & blinky) for the GT2.1 ProStock? Manual is a little confusing.

The new GT2.1 Pro stock ESC preload the special design stock race software and profile, which is suitable for stock racing like 9.5T, 10.5T, 11.5T, 13.5T, 17.5T with 2 cell lipo.

So I ran my Reventon Pro in stock 17.5 class today with no problems. Showed up to the local track today and everyone is running stock but me. So being that SP doesnt have blinky they let me run mine in stock with zero timing on esc.

I have to say that the Reventon Pro is by far smoothest of any esc I've owned. Just sold my Tekin w/latest software too. I own a gt2.1 and thought that was smooth. Reventon Pro is butter! Good job SP. I need another! BTW: I won 17.5 too. ha
