Hi Jilles, a couple questions regarding ESCs

When you started this thread you said your settings for the pearl v1 were...

What is the reason for the big difference in power program, is it simply because you've changed motor brands?
Also do you find the top end similar even though profile 5 has more timing? do you just gear up?
And finally, why did you decide to use the v1 rather than the v2? I run one too as I've heard that it is smoother, however I have some events coming up (State Titles and FEMCA race) on tracks with 50m+ straights so I'm wondering if I should get a v2 for these events.

Thanks
Craig

p.s. Will you be attending the FEMCA race in Sydney in September?
