So a high setting on the punch control helps startup? You had it set to full on at 100%, kind of like a cutrrent limiting feature then.

Hoping that the mm will be able to hadle the higher loads placed on the axi by the taller tires. You are running the higher kv model in an emaxx, albiet with more reduction gearing than I have with the redcat, that is considerably lighter.

On a side note, I received all of the parts I will need to get the next revo ready, just need Mike to release the center diff with the integrated slipper. I am thinking that one of the century motors would be interesting!
No, the high setting on the punch control doesn't help startup. Startups are great. I just put the punch control like that to try it out. It's not a current limiting feature really. When I stab WOT, it's like it eases into full throttle. Maybe 1/3 of second delay. This allows the motor to start and get going, before the full amp load is allowed. It's intended for traction control.

Punch control does help tame the wheelies and makes this more controllable. Which would be great for track racing.

Have you found us a better deal on the Century Motors? My "NEW" E maxx transmissions should be here today. Where's that mail lady? LOL
