I've been having many problems with my caldera and I finally got the chance to get it running with no problems
at the moment. I was able to GPS my rc using my iPhone. I've got a top speed of 48mph on a couple try's. I'm running 3a lipo with brushless hobbie 120a esc, tacon 9650 motor and 15t pinion gear. I'm still running the stock 508 program from the esc. I've been having problems not be able to connect to my laptop. Maybe if I can get it to reprogram and try other difference modes. I've try everything on the manual and can't get it to connect . I've even try and different laptop and still nothing. Anybody eles GPS their caldera?
your speed is respectable.
did you get a temp reading on the ESC/motor? I suspect you could gear it up some. as long as motor temps dont exceed 160.
Thanks to Nitrosport, I've got mine running those blazing speeds with a Volcano EPX pro ESC & a 3300kv motor.

glad to hear you got the speed you wanted.
