Is there any place I can find "graphs" of what the throttle profiles look like for the blinky mode? Running a prostock. I want to see what the different profiles look like or how they are different. Currently running #3 but it gets a little loose coming out of the corners. Problem there is a double after a 90* corner with a short run up. I have to take it perfect to make it but more often I have to single jump each or I flip. I may have just have to learn to be less aggressive with the throttle finger. :(
Thank
Mark

Thats why I don't like OFF ROAD...:lol:

I really think #3 is too "DELAY" when running no timing...what motor are you running? I hope that is for MOD.

BTW..there are no GRAPH that SP can provide for your throttle profile reading. But I think the NOVAK add on system can be used to READ your real time racing throttle curve and then you can read that thru your laptop after practice or race...we did that on ON ROAD when boost came out. Work out very nice except I thought we are playing TOY CAR here and those graph are just killing my head....:confused:

Does anyone knows if I could run 4s LiPo on a Silver Arrow V2.0 motor in my buggy? It is an 8.5R motor.
Thanks in advance!

If he is running blinky mode I doubt it's for mod.

Mark, playing with lower or higher settings is an option but unfortunately, it still mostly comes down to the "finger". the illusion of a short run up jump is that it is faster to go wide and double it. Many times it is faster to go tight to the turn and single it. It just looks less exciting. but in the end, faster and more consistent lap times are what is exciting anyway.

Like Howard said, there is no graph. Experiment some more and find a setting that gets you best lap times overall. (club races are really just practice for big races so use each qualifier and the main as a test by making a change for each round if necessary)

Hi Guys & Girls,

I'm knew to Speed Passion I have just got myself a Speedpassion GT2.1 EX esc

Now I have got this for my 2wd running 7.5t Speed Passion V3 motor.

Could someone advise me what software do I need to upload to the ESC and anyone recommend any good settings

Also I'm in the market for the following for my 4WD -

Speed Passion GT2.1 ESC's

Same again will this be good enough for the 4wd & what software/settings are ideal to use.

Thanks

Rob

Do you have the LCD card? If so you will want to go to the site page below and d/l the latest firware. Once you do this flash it with mod 205 to start.

Thanks, I can use that info too. Just ordered my LCD Box and plan to get another 2.1 or the Orion R10. Since they are made at the same place should be able to run the box on both. Downloaded the SW just need the box now.

kwiksi 08-30-2011 06:14 AM

Save your money and stick with the Speed Passion stuff.:D Don't count on stuff croosing over and being able to work with Orion stuff.

Oh, great. So now I'll have to program my cars and yours too? Ha ha ha. About time you ditched that other stuff you've been running. For your 4wd, run the 205 Mod. With your throttle happy self, I'd suggest a 17.5 or 13.5 in your 2wd, running 323 Stock with boost and turbo. You'll be faster with it. I was running 17.5 last time we were out.

Yeah, I like my 2.1 over my MMP. I would like to compare the R10 though.
