I would like some advice/tips on setup and usage. I've tried to go through this forum post, but TBH, it's a bit too long
I've got the software from HW and updated the ESC, so I now have USB v1.63, and ESC V3.0_110119STOCK. Is this the best or most up to date software?
What would be a good starting point for the settings running on an outdoor tarmac track (Eastbourne) that is fairly small and technical?
V3.0_211STOCK is the lastest software that you should be running.
IN the pdf manual on the HW website their are some recommendation for gearing 13.5 should be in the 4-5 range I believe. With the Nosram motor, start with your settings REALLY low, that motor has built in timing.
DDRS 7
Boost 30
Turbo 14
Turbo Slope 14/.1
Boost slope 350rpm/deg
Start RPM 6000
Run the car for acouple of minutes and then check the temp of the motor. You dont want the outside of the motor to get hotter then 125F (about 50C).
That should get you going, if you find the motor is still cool to the touch, then bring the boost up to 50, and add some more gear.
