I bought a speed passion 2.0 lrp and a 7.5t v2 speed sensored motor 2nd hand for £100 for my madrat and I am impressed with how smooth it is. The acceleration is very smooth and progressive.

I have the settings on smooth and the timing is set quite low and is fast enough for me even with a cheap lipo 20c rating.

Goodness knows how fast it would go if I wound it up and put a higher rating battery in it.



Have to be careful though, I already have gone through an idler gear in the Rat due to the high power and me having the slipper set a bit too tight.
