My caldera 10e top speed
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?

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.

RE: My caldera 10e top speed
No, I don't have a temp gun to check. I was able to use the entire 3s battery and at that point I couldn't put my finger on the motor cause it was soo hot. I forgot to time how long the battery last, but maybe around 30-45min. It's too tight on the esc so there no way I was able to touch that. What other type of gears can I do for upgrades?

Im not sure how big of a pinion gear you can fit on the caldera. but when it comes to gearing up, 2 teeth can make the difference of 2-5mph.
but dont gear up untill you know how hot your ESC/motor are running now.

RE: My caldera 10e top speed
Anyone has experience with brushless hobbie lt4 esc? I can't get mine to connect. I'm running window 7 on my computer and only got to connection once. Now I can't change my bad adjustment tune that I was testing. It there any way to program it back to the stock 508 program
Manually with the esc?

I've now run a 21T pinion with 2s lipo around 47-49mph and above 55mph on 3s.

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.
