Keep an eye on the Tekin RS thread and you'll get some good info on the RS.
Hi mate, have you got the chance to run the 208 software in your 12th car yet?? Going over to Deb's tomorrow so maybe have a chat then, ok?! Cheers bud.

The 50 stands for timing, and 8 stands for Turbo -- both available in sensored mode. I'd also recommend running 30 push control, throttle profile 5 and Turbo ramp 2. I don't recommend selecting the 1s check box.

Good day!

Why would you not select the 1 cell box?

Thanks

Robert will still be in business to continue selling you what you need.

Chris,

I won't be at the track tomorrow, I have a 5K run in the morning and a wedding in the afternoon. I have not run 208 in a 1/12th yet, I've only run touring since it warmed up. I do have a new 1/12th on the way and hope to get some track time before too long. If you figure anything out, you'll be ahead of me and I'll be the one asking questions.

As far as 208, in touring I haven't noticed much difference, it just seems a little smoother.

No prob mate, I noticed you posted something on the CH12 page and all, that's a nice bit of kit! Cheers buddy.

Default Front tire coneing... add or subtract camber?

Both my front tires started to cone after 1 run. The inside of the both front tires are smaller than the outside of the tires. (ie inside wears faster than outside)

So, should I add more camber or less camber in this situation? Many thanks!

A slight bit of coning all across the front in the same direction is normal as there will always be 1 corner more to one direction than the other. However both coning with the inside smaller than the outside is most likely too much camber so you will likely need to take some out. What did you set it at?

as i dont have the proper 1/12 setup equipment, i can only 'eyeball' or estimate the camber setting. I set at about -1.5 degree on both tires.

As you suggest, maybe I will remove some camber and try again.

thank you!
