As per above, which 10.5T and 17.5T brushless motors have adjustable timing?

How is the timing adjusted for each motor and are there timing marks and by how much can the timing be adjusted?
Timing
Tekin - has hash marks
Orion - has hash marks
LRP - has hash marks
Trinity - the Pulse motors have hash marks, the DUO motors use screws for 3 different settings.
Novak - No real markings but there are indentations on the timing ring.

You adjust timing by turning the timing ring counterclockwise. Each motor differs on how much timing can added at the motor. Most companies have not been publishing how much timing can be added. Tekin says they can add 24 degrees and I think it's 12 degrees for Novak. Not sure about the others...
