I have since found that out, I'd been told that the 8.5 motors had been dropped.

Looks like it's good bye to all my Novak motors and to the Nosram / LRP range!


As for expo on the Tx anything over about -30% and the throttle curve is feels quite un-natural to me, hard to judge especially when backing off to a set point. I normally run -25% on brushed motors!

As for Carl's comment about too much punch .... you can only put so much power down through the tires and any more is wasted. As I spent over 10 years racing stock before ever going near a modified I've not got the most delicate touch ..... something that rallycross certainly hasn't helped!!!


Anyway, all that is way off topic .....

As I said I can see why lipo is popular amongst some drivers but feel it definately won't be for everybody.
