Tekin RS ESC sensored
Tech Addict
I love to play around with timing and such, but I also look back with joy on when we all ran SPX's and the speed were almost identical. Those were the days. It was about the car setup and keeping up the speed through the corners.
I don't think this thread is the right place to discuss this, but here is my opinion:
Instead of having a stock (21.5T) and a superstock (17.5T) (these classes are from Denmark), I think it should be stock (17.5T no-boost - ROAR Timing-0) and superstock (17.5T boosted).
This way you don't have to buy a new motor, when switching class. And if you buy a decent ESC to start with (Tekin ) you don't even have to buy a new ESC.
quite pointless to discus motor rules online with people from all over the world.

17.5 novak ballistic
Hey there guys, just after a setup for a Novak ballistic 17.5, What should I set the motor end bell timing at? fdr is 6.5 on a fast track with a long back straight, any ideas would be awesome.
Cheers Scott

leave it on 30 or N. ballistic motors prefer a high start rpm and gearing in the 5.0 to 5.6 range

Has anyone tried running a higher turn mod motor (6.5-8.5) boosted against a 4 turn with no boost in a TC? How do they compare? I'm just looking for something that has the top end speed without having to control all the rip out of the corner. What speed control parameters did you use?

Seemed to work out just fine.
Very smooth off the corners, with plenty of rip down the straights.
Motor temps were around 125f all week.
TQ booster and all
Don't know about TC mod though, probably not an option there.

But we all know that the new ones will always want to start out fast.

Nowadays, like I said on the last page, there are a lot of speedos on par with the Tekin and some of us have branched out to other speedos just to be different. They are all on pace.
By the way, ROAR is doing exactly what you said this year. Stock is 17.5 non-boosted, Sportsman is 17.5 boosted, and Expert is open mod.

I get the two mixed up

Great! Unfortunately we don't use ROAR rules here in Denmark, and DASU (the Danish "ROAR-counterpart") are very weird sometimes (we still ran NiMH-batteries last year).

Mate you need your head checked or need to learn how to drive.. How can you say that considering tekin would have never released it if they had no success with it.... Its all about what someone wants......

Its a very good product and we used gallons of the stuff to clean rust, solder residue (flux) to dirt and dust. It doesnt corrode anything as thats what the stuff was designed for.
Good luck
