Keep in mind too that even though you're in blinky mode, there are still some esc's that are superior to others in their current delivery and efficiency. Blinky is supposed to level the playing field and stop the headaches for the club racers trying to keep up with the esc of the month club, and it does level the field to an extent. There's still motors out there that have a 50 degree timing window where others do not, and with the esc's it brings back some specs from the good old days where we looked at the on resistance of the esc's as well as the number of mosfets on the circuit board. Some will say that I'm crazy and it doesn't matter, some will agree with me, personal experience tells me that what I've said is true. I've seen first hand guys with same motor, battery, buggy, setup, gearing, tires, all that good stuff go toe to toe in Blinky mode, and the guy with the lower on resistance higher mosfet board speedo would drastically walk the guy using a lesser built speedo. I've done it myself in testing doing nothing more than swap out esc's and have experienced a similar result first hand.
Just some food for thought, my 2 cents/opinion, whatever you want to call it. Blinky does level things out, but there are times where you will see a distinct difference between the power in blinky with certain esc's. I've been running Viper esc's since the days that my early prototype showed up on my doorstep, I've seen a distinct difference in blinky powere when running it against other esc's in blinky even in my own buggies doing comparison tests.
