What do you suggest for timing? Do you suggest to keep it at 15 deg as std motor or to increase as this one has more poles?
I'm quite happy of the HW 80 amp too, I just moved the timing to the first value of the program card...I think 0deg, I was on 4s...ok I was told this was the right thing to do to use less battery...truly it was the right setup to burn the esc....with 15deg timing was running perfect, really i liked it.
So please If you can help me with this align motor I really appreciate I wouldn't like to fry this one.
cheers

Does the HW 150A run alot cooler than the 80A version? I've managed to kill my MM (with 50% punch control) on 4S on a 4.2 Kg modded e-savage recently and is looking for a replacement.
Regarding timing for brushless motors, a lower timing is used for 2 poles motor and higher timing for higher pole motors. Certain timing is more efficient on certain motors. The default 15 degree timing should be good for most 2 pole motors. According to my mamba max manual, increasing the timing will usually result in a slight increased in speed (I assume that they are talking about the 2 pole MM motors) but the efficiency will be lowered. It is not recommended to do so. It is better to play around with the pinion size.
