RE: **Caster Racing F8T Brushless Truggy**

RE: **Caster Racing F8T Brushless Truggy**

I 'conveniently' quoted the relevant part of your post that referred to me. Make sense?

I have contacted Hobbywing who told me to go through the retailer, in my case Himodel who are now handling...

RE: **Caster Racing F8T Brushless Truggy**

I actually dropped it I think 2 settings lower to 7.5deg.
The lipos seem OK, the packaging has been melted off but no puffing and they took 250mah to top up.

RE: **Caster Racing F8T Brushless Truggy**

Very close, I was using a HW 80A esc because my MMM hasn't come back from repairs yet.

RE: **Caster Racing F8T Brushless Truggy**

Hey, do you guys think its worth the extra 50% to get the Pro version??

I'm just a casual driver ('basher' - hate that term) and its a big difference in price from the roller to the pro.

RE: RC Smart 30A Brushless Speed Controller

sorry, I didn't mean to pick the one with the balancer but the normal one has the same programming anyway.

The strange thing is it has 7 programming menus and only 2 or 3 options for each one.

RE: RC Smart 30A Brushless Speed Controller

Also with your timing question I assume you would use +2 and +7deg for inrunners and +15 and +30deg for outrunners.
That seems to be what VULTCH is implying and today I heard someone say that you...

RE: NEW Hobbyzone Firebird Freedom

Yeah, the motor torque will try to roll the plane to the left. If thats the case you need to launch with less throttle or feed it in a bit smoother.

RE: NEW Hobbyzone Firebird Freedom
