Default Orion Vortex ESC Settings.

I've run the Orion Speedo's now for a little while, and all seems well except a few things.

I thought i'd got my head around the 'boost' and 'turbo' but in my 2wd I don't really seem to be getting the extra burst of speed i'm after down the straights - I can't really feel the speedo / motor timng kicking in?

My settings are:
Boost Timing - 8 (my understanding is that this is the OVERALL timing, i.e all the time)
Turbo Timing - 10 (my understanding is that this is the extra timing only on FULL throttle)
Turbo Slope - 24deg (not sure what this is or what it does......)
Turbo Delay - 0.3 (Delay on full throttle before TURBO timing is added ??)

I have updated the firmware via the PC and I noted that a few settings are greyed out in the PC software when connecting the ESC - in the advance tab, the Boost Start RPM is greyed out and set at 1000rpm and also the Boost timing AAC is greyed out and set to 50rpm/deg.

How's everyone else getting on with these speedo's?
All is well, apart from not really feeling the changes significantly, I only really notice an extra turn of speed when setting the Boost to max - which I assume is just altering the timing throughtout the entire rev range.

Cheers.
Andy
