205 mod

Personally I am not a fan of the fact they now come with all black wiring. It makes it a real pain if you don't premark the orientation of the plug on each side to make sure they are going in correctly compared to the multicolored wire.



Since the vehicle you are running has that 4.3 diff ratio and you are running on 4S, using this chart:

http://scriptasylum.com/rc_speed/top_speed.html

and these settings:

- 14.8V Battery Voltage
- Tekin 1700Kv motor at 1780Kv rating
- Proline Holeshot tires 4.1 diameter

Your estimated top speed was only about 28 miles per hour.

I would say to get up to the more common gearing range of 35mph to 40mph, you need to go up in your pinion tooth count significantly.

I personally would look into using the Lightning 44T Spur gear or 46T spur gear or you can do the Kyosho nylon spur gear mod and run there 44T spur gear like I do and then you don't need to go up as high on the pinion tooth count. A higher Kv motor though would be more ideal on 4S.

I would also run your cutoff rating at 3.2V per cell at a minimum to get better life out of your batteries. I personally run 3.3V myself.

Whats the deal with the Reventon series Speed Controllers?? First were supposed to be late march, Then mid april, now we dont even hear anything about them? Are they coming soon since HobbyWing has released their V3??

i run my 2.0 pro today with the 4 pole 4800 it seemed slow did not get over 110 deg on the motor and 90 on the esc may be under geared or the esc is no set correctly for this motor will try again at the track wed nite.

I been wondering the same thing......pre ordered mine months ago, and nothing

What motor? Truck, and gear? Also software? My truck flies , GT 2.0 w 4400kv SP.

Just a quick question, is the gt2.0 LP the same board as the normal gt2.0, just minus the fan? I have a spare i was going to put into my 4wd buggy, i know the gt2.0 can handle but not sure with the LPF.

Thanks

It's a no go for 4wd(Dex410). Lpf has different construction than the pro.

GT 2.0 LP is rated down to 5.5T motor. You can use it, but make sure you use the fan!
I don't recommend 5.5T for 4wd buggy or boost. I wouldn't do anything lower than 7.5T for 4wd.

I would say try gearing up first depending on where you are topping out down the longest straight. Your temps though look easily in the range where you could go up on your pinion gear.

DRRS: This is simply a feel adjustment, right? It doesn't do anything to limit current, does it?

What software level? Old one it limits, new software it doesn't.

I'm using the non-LCD programing box, so I'm going to assume it's the old software.
If it is the limiting version, then that's great!

Every morning I asked myself this question....:cry:

any prelim info we can get on the new SP motors? Like what kind of plug setup they will use, etc.
