Thanks Keith
Right now..I'm running Orca VX with stock 17.5 in my BD7
I did some test and tune last weekend sunday .I didn't like the feel of the throttler..it kinda hit and missed on power..or flat like no response around the corner...
Mike Malkinson and I try to figureout the problem.. so far nothing...
may have to try again hopefully the esc is okay...

what are your settings?? i don't have any such problems w/ blinky stock/super stock and the ORCA

Keith Yu

If you are running 17.5 Blinky try setup the ESC with 100% throttle on the radio and turn up the thorrle to 120% after.
PWM set at 8K Ver.3.0
Punch start with 8 and add more if needed.

Could some one forward me the V3.3 Software for my VX ESC? My local distributor isn't helpful in releasing this software at this time. My email is [email protected].

Thanks a bunch !

Hanulec, setups for the ORCA will be a good section in your RacerLog wik.

if there is a fade 1/2 through, i'd recommend checking your motor or batteries. overheat could also be signs of a different problem. check your belts (who uses those? j/k) and axle bearings.

good idea. my buddy eric lee posted my mod tc settings from this summer. i can download / review my tc stock setting and post them. they are pretty simple. punch at 10 .....

smart man -- but i'm a bit biased

make sure you got a motor fan blowing strong. this is even more important on the awesomatix longitudinal motor design as the motor doesn't get much air contact.

i don't run a speedo fan in 13.5 or 17.5. i do run either the stock fan, or the WTF 25mm fan for modified.

setups 'will' go here, but there are none yet. once i'm done freshing my car for carpet i'll download my stock setups. http://racerlog.com/wiki/ORCA_ESC_Setups

i just added everything i know about boosted / modified setups with the ORCA VX speedos. i've included some useful info from Ian Hardman -- it was very useful to help me figure out what was wrong/right with my setup(s). also, making 'binary' changes -- maxing a value and then minimizing a value helped me understand what many of these changes did.

stock settings later in the week.

How have the TX motors been handling in 12th scale blinky? looking to upgrade my 12th scale for WCICS this year and shopping for a motor. ill be running a VX1 esc in this car. for 17.5 boost, i was running a high rpm rotor in a reedy, is something similar available, or desireable for blinky?

Hi. Can you help me with a good setup for 17.5 boosted with a D3 motor on a 50meter straight

hanulec

iTrader: (28)

probably not.... we don't run 'stock' boosted around here. i'd really recommend you play around, and learn the speedo settings yourself.
have you tried Andrew's mod setup?

Luckily Keith has lots of Experience with 17.5 boosted, all last year one of the local clubs ran it, the straight wasn't 50meters but I'm sure u will get in the ballpark, I have my setup written down somewhere might take me a little but to find it tho.
