- Tamiya TRF416 - Jilles Groskamp Tips: ESC & Motor, Body and Other - |
Edited and create by Marco (lynx75) email : lynx75 at gmail.com Esc & Motor When you use Speed Passion speedo you can run timing in
the middle with 3.5 as this Speedo has a different timing then a Nosram/LRP
speedo. On the "old" Nosram I run normally 2,4,1,1.
On the new Pearl Speedo I use 2,5,2,2. When using a motor like 4.5 or faster you should use
the screw on the bulkhead. Only when it's really hot I use a coolfan on the rotor but most of the time without coolfan. In the Stock Class guys play a lot with power programs and gearing to get max power, stock motors usually got little more hot, around 65-70 degree. Body Yes, I always use light weight speed 6. I always mount
my wing as far as the regulation says, 10mm behind the rear bumper. Other I think the best way to improve your driving is to start with a normal motor, 10.5 or something. If you can drive all your laps within 0.2-0.3 seconds it's time to go lower turns. Ofcourse many people think with a faster motor you get better lap times. I started a long time ago with Tamiya cup and 540 Johnson motor and I ran it for a couple of years and slowly on I went faster motors. Nowadays newcomers will switch from a stock motor to a modified motor within a few month. |
