I ran a lrp 10.5 and 9.5 in my durango and found that both sort of shuttered at low rpm and seemed to have a power-band to them. Off the ground giving throttle i would get a gradual acceleration and then a noticeable kick in rpm change around mid throttle. Does this sound like a bad flash? Or possibly a sensor wire issue. Temperatures where fine and i ran the night with 9.5 without much issue other then the low rpm lag shutter and that strange power-band effect. Almost as if it had timing of variable timing which it did not.

(side not the week before i had be having thermal-ling issues with the 10.5 running stock software) I wont discount the possibility of Esc issues but it did its job last nite under temp and without issues..

Ideas?

thanks in advance..

Just upgraded to 528 mod with a 7.5 ORCA motor, can people recommend any settings to start with.

This is for a 2WD 201 Vega and Cougar SV. LPF in my 2WDs and GT2 Pro in my 4WD

I'm also planning this for my Tamiya 511, but need to get a new motor first, not sure whether to go 6.5 or 8.5 and use the boost etc.

Cheers,

Mike

I used 528 mod with 7.5 in 2wd and 4wd for the past few months with most of the settings near the max without any problems. Its the last sc setting you want to tame down to -3 or so to keep motor temps in check. Especially in warmer weather. I used 23/78 geared in a b4 and 22/78 in a b44

I am getting back into RC cars after selling off all my equipment and have recently been given the Speed Passion GT Competition Brushless ESC v1.1 (720 amps) and a 13.5R Brushless Motor ver 2.0. I am going to be putting it in a 1/10th 2wd buggy.

I am looking at getting a 3.0 Competition 8.5. Will the V1.1 be suitable to drive this motor? Will I see any issues? I see their is a new GT2.0 and 2.1. I have liked the Speed Passion brand and would love to have it power my 2wd buggy.


Thanks!

By no means am I a great racer. I get to the track twice a month and just like to mess around. I like to be competitive though.

Thanks!
