Punchy settings for XERUN 120a

[dobber]

Ive upgraded the software on my laptop and installed the V3 Modified software to my 120a XERUN esc. Im runing a Losi 6.5t motor. Any clues on what settings to get it nice and speedy please Im running Nosram 5000mah 50C lipos if that helps.

Thanks!

What class, 2wd or 4wd?

In 2wd leave the punch setting on either 1 or 2, for 4wd use 2 to 4 depending on conditions.

4wd settings (Orion 6.5 motor);

boost timing =16
TURBO timing = 14
Turbo delay = off
Turbo ramp rate 3deg/1000rpm
Turbo start revs = lowest

2wd settings (Orion 7.5 motor);

boost timing =10
TURBO timing = 18
Turbo delay = off
Turbo ramp rate 3deg/1000rpm
Turbo start revs = lowest

These feel really nice and smooooth but still have plenty of go.

Remeber that you can store upto 3 profiles on the ESC (when accessing them with the LCD program box). I normally have the above as my "STANDARD" setting, one with half as much boost timing but the difference added to the turbo timing as my "WET" and one with the boost setting 1.5 times and the turbo reduced by the same amount in degrees for "INDOORS" so you have plenty of punch on high grip carpet to clear the ma-hoooo-siv jumps that seem to be popular these days.

Hope that helps.

Its on a 2WD with a 7.5 and a 4WD with a 6.5

One other question is it best to run with stock software or the modified?

2wd - 7.5t Speed passion V3 - Stock software

4WD - 6.5t Losi - Modified software.

Great info Roger, as always!
What is your gearing?

I assume same settings / concept on the SP and R10s

Thanks Roger. Another one for you :

Does it mean that you have 16 degrees of boost timing? Sorry, I am not familar with Xerun settings, in fact I am trying to duplicate your settings on a R10.

Many thanks!

Yes, 16deg of timing on "boost" .... boost is the normal timing that the speedo uses before going into turbo mode. Less makes the motors feel more linear and smoother but if you go down too much and try and recover this with lots of turbo you may find the motor becomes a bit jackel-n-hide in it's character.
