As you know we have some of the Predator guys using the Tekin RS Pro and Redline motors in their cars.

If you have any questions, please ask away!

[Randy p]

Yes it's a 5T delta wound 3700 kv motor.

can anybody please tell me if there would be a problem with me using a 5000mah 30c lipo to power a old tekin 411g speedo running a 13turn motor? thanks

what is the opposite of delta-wound and what are the capabilities of both?

[samd]

Ive had a 537 ryan - its not going to be as fast as a 'normal' 5.5 - i think around 8.5/10.5 speed. Nice motors and very smooth so good for polished floor.

I used a 448 in 4wd indoors and i think people in 2wd used the 537

And it will work fine with your mamba Stampy

Hi, does anyone have any idea if/when windows 64 bit compatible hotwire software is being released?

Thanks

Run it in a VM, dead easy and works perfectly

I am running Windows XP as a VMWare machine, slight mod to the VM config file and it works perfectly (unlike the new Virtual PC crap)

simple question:
Where can I buy a Tekin RS Pro these days?

I could not buy one previously at my local dealer (MCM) as they only have the R-series in theri stock, so I ordered my two RS Pro's in Asia ... but they seem out of stock there.

Anyone knowing an address where I could order one online and get it shipped to Belgium? (@ a reasonable price)
Thx!

[burgie]

Lowie, I got mine from the RacePlace....have you given them a try?

[Lowie]

thx
.. but price is rather "not low" : £ 199,00
as it has to be shipped anyway and I can find it for about $ 200,00 on other places (which is about £ 120,00)

Finally sorted myself out with a Hotwire

I've installed the latest version and 180 software as recommended and will run it for the next couple of meetings to see the difference with the old set up it had.

Can Randy or somebody in the know send me the details to get the 200 version please?

Thanks

[Randy p]

Just email me here for it: [email protected]

Can the V2.00-software be run with a brushed motor? WIll it give a speedboost as it does on a sensored brushless motor?

[mikeyscott]

Can anyone recommend settings for a Cat SX and B4 running indoors with 7.5 LRP and Losi motors?

Racing at Petit and never raced indoors before...

No, as the timing on a brushed motor is mechanical, rather than electronic as on the brushless.
