Even with max. punch there was an extreme delay before the speedo delivered full power. Also there was some cogging from standstill. So it was simply undrivable. A fellow racer had exactly the same experience. Plus cogging from standstill and on corner exit.
Some questions pop to mind:
Is there a know 4-cell issue with it?
Is there a software update to fix this problem?
Will it work better with Redline motors?
Is it ok with most motors when using 6 cells? How about 5 cells? |
I haven't used mine with 4 cell but in 6 cell offroad i don't have those problems. The delay has been fixed with the latest release of software and it drives the motor much better with stronger starts and more rpms. I was suprised how much of an improvement the new software was.
The redline motors are what it has been designed with, but i use Nosram motors and as long as you use sintered rotors its fine. I do believe it struggles with stock winds from what i've read but i don't have any experience with those..
I'd definately advise getting it hooked up to a Hotwire and make sure you have the latest software.
