i'm all for the blinky mode on ESC's (for starters i haven't had to fork out £150 on a speedo to keep more on the pace of the top guys) but 1 thing does concern me... Yes, timing advance is banned on ESC's, but am I right in assuming motor timing advance (on motors that can be advanced) is allowed?
If that is the case, what is the point of banning ESC timing & then allowing motor timing? Surely it would make more sense to have zero timing on 10.5 motors to even out the field, removing any advantage (& slow the cars which is the whole point of having a blinky rule) or just allow timing on 13.5 motors so they can run in with the 10.5's on the saturday. Plus surely if the motor timing is advanced, technically speaking, doesn't that motor then become a modified motor?
