speed passion 6.5 timing

[warped]

Hi,

Just got a speed passion v2 6.5 (sensored) motor and a speed passion speedo.

Does anybody understand how the timing settings work or have any suggestions as to timing settings and gearing for 2wd off road?

According to the motor instructions there are 3 settings for timing.

Option 1 high efficiency performance.
Option 2 High power agressive performance (the motor comes on this setting.
Option 3 Best balance performance.

These settings are achieved by rotating the endbell.
I guess option 1 is 0 degree timing, but it doesn't make sense to me that the middle setting gives the most power, as the endbell position is in between settings 1 and 3.


Anybody know what these settings relate to in degrees?

The instructions helpfully say "please follow esc manufacturers timing reccomendations".

So the next step is to look at the speedo manual. - Well something appears to have been lost in translation.

The table of programmable speedo settings says "timing - only for sensorless motor"

But then the next page of the manual says

"please select the most suitable timing value according to the motor you are using..............................please note that the timing value will be available for both sensored and sensorless brushless motors".

There is nothing about timing settings for the motor itself.

Help!

Tried emailing Schumacher about the timing settings on on Friday, but as yet no reply.

I hear that the Orion / Peak speedos are supposed to be the same speedo rebadged. - Anybody have a link to some instructions? - Couldn't see anything on the Orion site.

Thanks
