[MrMagoo]

I'll be down to do some set up work on the 2wd ready for the 30th.

[Stuweatherman]

Won't be down as its the 1st round of the Chippenham winter series, but hoping to make it down for the 1st round of Torch's winter series next weekend.

Yes John. It was the speedo that was causiing the motors to overheat. I gave it to Rob W and he said there was some really old firmware on there that could only be the reason for the problems.

all updated now and I have installed it in the Durango and gave it a test run for 6 minutes on grass and it didnt thermal. So fingers crossed all should be ok.

What settings have you got on your durango with the turbo options?

[MrMagoo]

Can't remember, but will will hook the box up and down load them on Sunday.

[jaywestwood]

be down if warm and dry

[mikeyscott]

Can't remember, but will will hook the box up and down load them on Sunday.

John are you using 119 mod software?

[jpmatrix]

I'm in looking forward to it, mr magoo can you set up my hobby wing because I have the Same problem with mine

Did you get your hobbywing from Giantcod rc?
Didnt know you have got it installed already. What problems did you have?

Just for reference, the firmware that was originally installed was V1.10_090205_mod which was giving me all the thermal issues thats if it was the cause:confused:

I have now got V3.0_110119 mod. I just hope this sorts it out.

Might be persuaded to let you clip onto mine Jon

[Deano577]

Hello James yep got it from giant cod , installed it in the b4 with fan and every runn the motor was hot as and I the end he motor got fryed new one on order.
See you Sunday, I'm gonna give the 4wd a bash

[MrMagoo]

John are you using 119 mod software?

Running 110323STOCK in 'Rango Mike, have been all summer and it's a missile, even with a cheap 6.5T motor in it, plus no thermalling issues. Hat's off to Mr Dibble for the settings, he gave me a great base and to be honest I've only tweaked it a little bit.

Will be trying the same in the X2C with a little less turbo on Sunday to see what that's like...

[markatharding]

[swords]

Hope so, need some BB pink an green 2wd rears...

[makinwaves]

Ordinarily we'd be there guys but we both have family commitments this weekend. Sorry no shop tomorrow.

If people are desperate for things in the future we'll always try and get it to you on Sunday. I'm only down the road so happy to bring orders up for people but will need a bit of notice to pick up the stock from Bournemouth.

Enjoy the racing!

Mark

[mikeyscott]

[DHB]

Thanks to all who came today. Good weather, some good racing and some breakages, so all in all another good mornings racing. I did note Tony seemed to enjoy his first outing with the 2wd X6. Probably quicker then his 4wd due to being well tuned by Mr Taylor. :thumbsup:

Hope to see you all at the 1st race of the winter series next week.

Lol. Respect for a car??? Regardless of ownership I didn't think that would come into it. By the time MK gp it'll be back to normal!
