Seems extreme.

However, this guys has reposted same question 3 times, and in caps at that. Not going to get much response that way. Ill be generous since he seems to be new here.

@Craza818 - First, recommend you post in the correct forum for your vehicle. This will ensure that those that have the same vehicle and can help are seeing your post. Second, lose the caps lock. No one like to be yelled at. Third, dont repost it just is annoying. Lastly, tuning rules apply for all vehicles - especially stock. Make sure you are using the right gearing as a baseline, plenty of posts everywhere about this. Make adjustments from there based on temps. The manual calls for a starting point of 27/75. Start there. Other than that, on the right forum, post your motor, esc, gearing, and normally people will be more than glad to help.

thank you...

Anyone running a XXX-SCT with Orion R10 Pro and 17.5 VST2 combo??

I am running a 22 SCT so pretty close.

- Gearing, 76/28
- Orion R10.1 Pro Blinky
- Trinity D3.5 M. 12.5 Broadband Rotor. Can set to 10 degrees adv
- RevTech Shorty battery, 100C/4900MaH
- Slipper locked (or pretty close)
- Diff tight
- MIP Pucks complete system (Diff, outdrives and Dogbones)

I go between 27 and 29 on the gearing based on traction and outside temps. Comes off around 140 always. No Drag brake in the ESC. This setup is very good. There is not a single truck that can pull me on the straight or in the infield. Keep in mind that the motor plays a big piece of the setup. This setup is not ROAR legal but fine for club racing. You will need to play around with gearing as others said based on the Orion VST.

BTW, I do not understand why people wont share stock setups. This is more of a driver class than anything else.

Good luck..

Have you ever went really high on timing on lower on pinion that way you have punch and top end??

I have tried everything. In SC, I run very little can timing due to the weight. I have run full timing with short gearing and the battery falls of to fast and it generates more heat. Less can timing with a taller gear is kind of a crap shoot since you want to be able to get the motor running inside its powerband window. Again, play with the pinion gears and can timing to see what fits you're track.

How is ur motor timing set on the can? Pulling 120 temp w that gearing is awesome, even on a big track

Only other mod is the MIP puck system. The tracks I run on vary in size, but are all pretty much med to high traction. I run rear motor and my temp is around 140* for 6 min main.

I have the timing set to about 60 degrees.comes off at about 120-130 depending on the layout.
