I finally dug through the site and found the information but thank you. Its just funny to me that people I race with complain about spending X amount of dollars on an esc/motor combo and refuse to even look at SP. $60 for an ESC designed for blinky racing, but can handle a little more, is pretty awesome.

I just wish there were more stock racers around here so I could try it. I keep thinking I am going to buy the V3 Comp 17.5 and hook it up but first I need for JP, Luke, or Dustin to show up at the same track I do and hopefully get them to download the software for blinky and ask them what settings to try.

Well...if you have our driver like JP hanging around, you have to step it up and run MOD.............talk to JP and he will help you out. Tell him HOWARD say Hi to him and keep winning...

I run Mod now. I moved to the V3 Comp 9.5 and I am very happy with that motor. Very strong and pulls the entire straightaway and temps after 8 minute mains are 160-170 esc and 135 motor. JP moves around quite a bit and if it is a big race I am not going to bother him no matter what his obligations are supposed to be. I am hoping he runs at The RC Factory again soon so I can talk to him. Nobody else runs SP stuff except for them and me so my options of people to talk to are small.

Sensor problem....when you are slow, you are running sensorless. Check your motor sensor board, then sensor cable....if nothing work, the sensor port of the ESC is bad.

You aren't going to take that purty thing out in the dirt are ya?

Somebody needs to make a 90 degree end servo wire though....didn't care for the first pictures I saw of just the unit, looks even scarier with the plug connected. Not that it'll stop me from giving it a go, but still.
