Doubt it.

I messed around with the settings on the esc a little. I don't know what the timing was set on before, but I changed it to 15* for 10-14 pole outrunner motors.

I have the option of 1* for 2-4 pole inrunners, 7* for 6-8 pole motors, 15* for 10-14 pole outrunners, and 30* for 10-14 pole high rpm outrunners. If one of the other settings would be better for me let me know. Startup is much better now though, but still not perfect.

Since this setting change and the improvement on startup, I think I'll just run my 11/72 gears I have now geared for 27.27 mph. I'll see how it goes and I always have the option of gearing down later. Right now I'm geared for low 30s.

Since I don't need the sprocket from mcmaster, this will allow me to try and find the chain locally to save some money. Would your standard lowes/home depot have #25 roller chain?
