Wow- I take the night off and everyone asks me questions -- sorry guys.

Jay it does sound like a sensor wire or a cold solder joint on one of the motor wires - change the sensor wire first. No matter what brushless speed control I have used current or past - its almost always the quickest fix.

Chris - I think Dave has you on the track you need. I actually never used a Tekin RS speedo, so I really can't reference how their functions work.

For me I normally try to start with something recommended (the set up sheet that was mentioned) and experiment a little from there. Everyone likes things a little different - that is what makes this hobby so unique.

slasn - I have not used that Tekin motor before - if it is a sensored motor it should work with the VTX10r. Gearing, setup and drive time will determine if there are heat issues or not. Remember if you have a set up that only reaches 150º after 6-7 minutes, it will be higher if you try and run for 10-12 minutes.
