R1 Works Digital 3
I'm always sceptical when someone claims a blinky ESC is significantly faster. If it was, everyone would be running it and/or it'll be flagged by race control for scrutineering checks.
be skeptical… try it though and see for yourself. I actually spoke with someone at the track and he said the same thing. He switched and everyone thought he got a new motor.
Here’s something else I noticed with my hobbywing stuff… I calibrate the esc at 100% brake and throttle. If I calibrate it at 100% and bump the epa to 110% it lets the motor run faster. Try it with your xr10 pro g2s. Calibrate it at 100% then run it at 100%. Pull over bump the epa up to 110% on your transmitter and see if it’s faster down the straight. It should never get faster if you go over 100% but it does.
Someone else try this too and tell me if you notice it or not.
