Need some advice. I have a stock Tekno SC410 with a Hobbywing SCT combo which includes the 4700KV motor. I am using a 16 tooth pinion and 7200 mah new batteries from SMC. This past Saturday at the races my car stopped after about four minutes. About thirty seconds later is went again. The same thing happened in the main, but more frequently as we race for ten minutes. My battery voltage after the ten minute main (I ran for about 7 minutes) was 7.53 volts. I did not take the voltage after the second qualifier, but it would surely be higher than 7.53 volts due less run time. I temped the motor after the qualifier and the main and it was approx. 120 degrees both times. Should I go down one tooth on the pinion gear to a 15 tooth? Should I get a higher mah amp battery? Should I get a fan for the motor? Is there anything I can do to the esc settings? FYI I have been playing with the ESC drag brake setting.... if memory serves I have it at 40 or 30 with the programming card...Everything else is pretty standard. I was thinking of taking off the rear bumper to save weight. No nose dive issues for me.... Please advise.

Hi there!
It's really nice to have this kind of support available...
I am considering an upgrade from brushed motor & ESC to a Hobbywing X9B combo. Problem is that I seem to have a limited space for an esc on my car (a Kyosho EP Fazer Kobra). The current ESC is a Perfex KA-16H ESC which measures 30.2x33.7x16.5mm.
How do I deal with the issue?

I have a question. to turn off turbo if you do not want turbo I don't see a disable feature so I am guessing that on turbo if you do not want it to come in you would set the setting at 0 when you get to the turbo parameters in the ESC is this correct? I would like to try using boost only just trying to figure out how to turn off the turbo thanks for the information

I've seen this in the past and it was the fan on the ESC not working or not plugged in. It will cause the ESC to overtemp and cut off.

Hi guys. I have a v2.1 90A driving a Speed Passion 13.5t V3 motor in my 4wd 1/10 buggy. How far can I push this setup sensibly to get the maximum punch and straight line speed out of it?
Can anyone provide some guidance and preferably a good starting ESC setup using STOCK software on the v2.1?
