OK Thanks. Thats about where I thought should start for blinky based on what gearing I use with a D3.5. But, for boosted, I was going to run 0* timing on the can, about 40* on the esc, and drop the equivalent about 5 teeth on the pinion. Does that sound about right?

26* of motor end bell timing is included on the SMC 17.5 motor. That is, "if the screw is touching the plate where the L is marked the motor timing is set to 26 degrees. If it touches the H this is 60 degrees. In the middle is 43 degrees."

I did some testing with the SMC 17.5 motor at an indoor carpet track this weekend and the motor performed well. I was only 1 sec behind the local fast guy. I used the same gearing as with my D3.5, 35* of motor end bell timing and zero esc timing. The motor ran a lil hot after 6 mins so I reduced the motor end bell timing to 26* and the motor temps were acceptable. I plan on doing some more testing this week and an outdoor track.

I believe he's still expecting them to arrive from the manufacture at the end of the month.

Any ETA on when Race Formula 7.4V 5600mAh 70C Saddle Pack's will come in? Need to pick up two of them stat!

He is waiting for info from the factory on when they expect to be shipping them. I will e-mail im again to see if he has an ETA on those and the square packs.

+1

Thanks

Any idea when 7200 70c inboard packs will come in?

I ordered some last week and I was told late this week

I've been running my SMC 6500 65C for about 10 race days now. When I try to balance charge it, my charger (Hyperion 0606) says that the balance voltage is too low. Yet I can not balance charge to 8.4V every time. I set my LVC to 3.2V per cell, so I don't believe I ran the battery too low. Do you guys think the balance port is disconnected from the battery?

Try charging it out of balance mode for a min or two then stop it and try again. It could also be the balance board for the charger.

Danny says he has 7200s coming in by Thursday of this week. For Square packs and saddle packs he says he is not 100% sure but it should be in the next few weeks I hope. As usual Chinese New Year vacation really messes up things in China so he is waiting on a ship date from the factory.

It is not the balancing board on my charger, I can still balance charge my other 2S and 4S batteries without issue. I will try what you suggested though, thanks.

Is there a possibility of the square packs shipping out next week?

delete.

check your connecter on it i had one where my deans plug on the battery was no good it would not read both cell. changed out the deans plug and whammy it worked could even be the charge lead. who knows maybe i just got lucky and it fixed itself. nut this only happen to one pack out of 5.
