hey guys
does n e one know what my dynamite 12sp should be running for temps. its only got like 16 tanks through it then i bought a buggy so i havnt been running it for a while. But now that the buggy is race ready im ready to have some fun with my little guy again. I bought the dynamite 12 and like a week later i bought a 9.5 lol so i havnt had the time for my rc10gt. Im guessing like 175 ish but was hopeing someone could tell me for sure.
thanks

i run myin at 270

270 is overheating the engine!!! I run my engine around 210-230 and no hotter! It runs well and will outperform the overheaters. 250 is considered to be running too hot... 270 is even hotter. More heat = excess wear.

even on .15 an .25

on any engine.

Kemo

those are considered good temps hehe... and its what I run at maximum.

so like a good 240 would be preventative and also good.
cuz i mean im running 180 now and the thing still flys so i mean i couldnt imagine 250. lol

You have to be super carefull when you push 240. If you tune it with the body off, then you can add another 20-30 degrees with the body on.
