[email protected] is Matt's e-mail. I think he is at a race event this weekend so he might not e-mail RIGHT back.

Am I missing the solder post letters on the black synergy motor? I don't see the ABC. Is the layout the same as the blue cans?

Sorry guys... Have had a busy last month... 3 day race weekends each weekend for the last 5 weeks... usually including up to a 9 hour drive day before and after.

All E-Mails and PM's have been returned. Everything is all caught up... prepping for IIC Now. That will be an entire week on the road...

Our blinky 17.5 TC class uses a max fdr of 3.8... What rotor would you recommend, 12.5mm or 12.3mm?

James - Is the track tight, or wide open and flowing?

Our local asphalt/outdoor track varies in configuration and can range from relatively tight to having a wide rh sweeper-straightaway-wide lh sweeper type setup.

So it varies. I guess that is a pretty poor response and makes it pretty hard for you to answer my question.

I guess I am just wondering what the majority of TC racers are using with the Murfdogg motors? These motors seem to like less endbell timing than most 17.5s, so it may be that they benefit more from a higher rpm rotor than others?

Anyone have a suggested starring point for gearing, esc timing, and endbell setting for an 8.f running in a FTSC10? Track is med/high bite, large outdoor sweeping. THANKS on advance!
