Default Testing Update

Hello
Just wanted to post an update on how the testing with the SMC 1C Lipo has been going.

At first I struggled with a lil more fall off towards the end of a run than I would have liked but have really figured some stuff out and have gotten the fall off down to what we see in 17.5/4-cell. So far what has worked the best for me is this setup, which equates to stock (17.5/4-cell) speeds.

Tekin RS with two capacitors
13.5 Motor Geared 45/76 with 1.72" tires
Hotwire setup timing at 100%, Sensored only mode
Currently running a Much More 200mah 7.4v lipo receiver pack
Also running the "red" wire from the speedo into the reciever

Speeds are really equel to stock. Punch, straightaway, everything. Driveability is great. Laptimes are identical to the car that just won 17.5/4 Cell at Vegas. Both cars hotlapped tonite at 10.1

If anyone has any quetsions feel free to ask I'll try to help as much as I can.

Edited: Forgot to add that I am running the car at 815g race ready. I believe the weight rule will have to be lowered a lil with li-po as there is just not enough space to add weight in these cars and its really unnecessary.
