On mod with 6.5...our top driver, always stick with 205 because with hot motor like 6.5, and the track is not getting bigger, boost just don't make it better...infact, if the setup with boost is off, you will be drag down to the B or C main...

I agreed with you...205 with 6.5 can be better and easier for everyone in off road...you want more speed, gear up or faster motor....
Exactly. That's how I have my 2wd and my 4wd set up. 205 Mod in 4wd, 323 Stock in 2wd with a 17.5.

If you do have their setup, please share with all of us....I am way way way far off on off road racing, I tried very hard to keep my lid up...:lol:

LOL. I'll have to find my setup sheets, I haven't run 1/10 in about 6 weeks. I remember that my 17.5 setup with the GT LPF 2.0 is very close to what SCTom posted when the 323 Stock first came out. And my 205 Mod setup is very close to what JP posted a few pages back, I used his as a base and tweaked from there. About to test out my new drift car, I'll look for setup sheets today or tomorrow.

Brushless noob ?
 
I'm running my new 2.1 prostock and v2 17.5 and I'm wondering what temps I should be trying for on the esc? and motor? I haven't had a temp gun until now so I'm wondering what to shoot for. Also wondering, since its been a few years, I go to a smaller pinion if temps are high right? I think that we used to do that for the brushed motors when you burned your finger touching it.

thanks again for all the help here!!

1/8 esc and Silver Arrow V2.0 Brushless Motor - 5.5R on 2s
 
Has any one tried running the Silver arrow 1/8 esc with the Silver Arrow V2.0 Brushless Motor - 5.5R on 2s lipo? i plan to run it in a losi scte. Or would the GT2.0 pro esc be a better option on 2s? thanks for the help

I personally run a 2.1 Pro with 17.5 and 13.5 v3's and never see more than 130 on my motr on a hot day using 323 boosted. I have setting spretty maxed. My speedo just gets warm. Never temped but maybe 95F with no fan and sitting under an overtray in my xxx-sct.

Well I got my gearing in the 140 range after about 10-12 minutes running at the track, is that ok? It dropped to 135 after 5 min race though. I was running great times during practice but choked when the racing started.:cry: How much different will my car feel when I connect the sensor wire? I have been running without it since the one I had was a little short.
Thanks again

I believe it will be alot different.. I dont know first hand but from what I have read about sensor less is there is no smooth acceleration.. if you are running 2wd I think you will notice much more than 4wd.

mjk1210 07-19-2011 05:23 AM
Without the sensor wire it wont have boost or timing. The motor will take longer to spool up. Almost easier to drive sometimes on a loose track. But a lot more tuning options with it connected.

Must use GT2 PRO for 2 cells....SAII does not work too good with 2S, not enough juice to power that monster...

Has anyone tried the new green 30 degree sensor board in 2wd blinky class,

I'm looking for a starting FDR to try and what degrees seems to work best

I have the GT 2.0 pro with the V2.0 550 5.5. I am using it in a 4x4 LCG Slash. It keeps up with the competittion no problem, and its totally programable with the latest and greatest softwares. But youll need a LCD programmer that does not come with the speedo. The motor does come with a long sensor cable FYI. You cant run 2s on the Silver Arrow 1/8, its a 3s speedo. besides the GT is much smaller. If I can help more let me know.:tire:

I guessing your asking about the 20 degree ring for using it in the 2wd SCT racing.?

Yes, I have used it successfully, in conjunction with rotor swaps. It creates a window of 10-30degrees now which is great.Temps were in the 120 zone. They boogie in off road, I recommend all the "C" rating you can afford. You will see the difference. Exactly what our motors needed,. I do have MMM motors on the way, and will be testing them too..:nod:

B4james 08-03-2011 05:43 AM
Yeah the 0-30degree board, going to be trying it in a 2wd buggy and was hoping for a starting point FDR wise

Here's the club cirtrix 17.5t combo in my tlr22
http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/k...DSC_0077-1.jpg

I've been running on a small track that is usually very dry on the day I race. This motor/esc combo has been working really well for me. When I get a chance I'll also be purchasing more SP products for my 4wd buggy.
