Re: Tekin Turbo Off

Tried the turbo ramp in three...brill on fast very high grip tracks but on normal grip to no grip it's not worth it. Point 2 seconds faster on high grip. Back to 2 for Hinckley, if I ever use turbo again. Last night I set my car up on 50 timing and 8.0 drive ratio. No turbo added. Boy was it a lot ...

Annodized Aluminum Spool Outdrives and Grease

I just got some of aluminium Outdrives for my front spool. I wanted to find out if I should put a little grease inside the outdrives where the axle pin makes contact to help reduce the wear.

Thanks

Tekin Turbo Off

Going to try turning the Turbo function off. Going to test it during this week. We don't really need it in the first race of the day anyways. Everytime turbo kicked in did catch up to those infront of me but went way wide. I should of listened to Darren when he said he slowed his car down for the bo...

Re: Tekin Start and End RPM's?

I had changed from 8.4 to 8.0 today. I ran 8.4 the 2 weeks before with good results too but I went to 8.4 'cause of my lipos punch. When I went to my new lipo I was able to go back to 8.0 as it was very punchy. I will go back to 8.4 next week to see what it's like. My car was very rapid a the bottom...

Re: Tekin Start and End RPM's?

Just got a new MoreSpeed 50c 5000 lipo. Comparing it to what I have now it is night and day. A little bit more speed but the torque massively increased. It changed the balance and feel of my car but still good lap times tonight. Had to reduce throttle start from 15 to 10 and went from a 19t pinion b...

Re: Tekin Start and End RPM's?

I'm quite similar: Timing: 40 (if I go higher I go slower) Turbo: 15 Ramp: 2 Profile: 3 or 4 (ardent) Endbell timing: 0 FDR: 8.4 I have even done 50t/10b & 45/10 £ 47/12 Playing with start and end now. Dean changed his to low numbers at Leamington and it increased his speed. Dunno why my car is ...

Re: Tekin Start and End RPM's?

On Hinckley's track its quite fast but Ardent they catch right up on my tail so wondered what everyone else was running. At Ardent in he final I was 1st place through most of the race with some really good drivers. I was slowest overall but I made almost every apex perfect to keep them behind me. I ...

Tekin Start and End RPM's?

Was just doing some research on my Tekin and realised that the person who set my controller up did not changed the start and end RPMs to what they were running. It's still set on default. So,what are you all running? I was as 20016 and 54??. Now I am 17500 and 4???. My original settings were brill a...

Carbide or Ceramic in B4 and B44 Diffs?

Just like the subject says which is best to use? I've got both. I raced my B4 and B44 this weekend and both have notchy diffs. The b4 diff is only a little bit but my B44 makes loud clicking noises. I think I will leave the B4 diff alone as it performed well at the races, well, so did the B44, but t...
