Can you explain the throttle minimum and how it effects the performance? I am running 17.5 gen 3 with the rs gen 2 esc and want to understand allt he settings do in the esc and this one is the only one I don't understand yet.

Randy,
Is there any chance that Tekin will sell just the stators for their Gen 3 motors any time soon?

Andy, not at this time but we've had the conversation. I don't see many people swapping parts between two stators in my area. Do you?

What kind of temps are you seeing from the motor in what amount of run time? Playing with the current limiter will help. (Average setting is 60-80)

Ok TLR Truggy geared 15/45 with the 2000kv is good on a large track. If it's not large, you may need to drop a tooth here.

How big is the track? What is the longest straight away?

For comparison I ran this gearing at AMS and Silver Dollar where the tracks had a 200ft straight.

What is ambient temp when you run?

No, you won actually. The RSX isn't going anywhere. Matter of fact it's about to get that much better in the next ........
