Timing on the brushless motor
#1

Hi
I have a Robitronic speedstar brushless engine. On the side in the back of the motor i have numbers 0 - 8 and if I unscrew the backplate of the engine I can turn a ring at the end of the motor between the numbers. Is this timing adjustment? Default it is on 4. what would adjusting this do?
I have no adjustment of timing on the Robitronic ESC.

Hmm.. I do infact also have timing in my ESC
5. Timing** 0° (1) - 25° (6) 0° (1) - 10° (6) 25° sensorless 10° sensored
Default is 10 for my sensored motor. Is that "hardest" timing?

Yeah that will increase timing. Generally the more you increase timing the more rpm or top speed you will increase sacrificing torque and making the motor run hotter. Try increasing it little by little and check your temp on motor. If you start to increase it to much then you have to start changing your gearing.
