I wonder if there is enough adjustment available in it to run a 14T?

So, 4S, 20T, how does 20% punch sound? What should I run for timing?

Punch adjustment is purely on the driver. I can adjust my punch control on the fly using my brain to finger coordination... I usually start at 50% and work my way down (towards 0%), it all depends. Leave te timing stock, no need to fool with that as the CC escs vary the timing automatically.

I am not sure... I figured someone with the truck who has tried would chime in...

I don't think there is, at least with the stock 44T spur. There is very limited adjustment on the motor mount. I believe that's why so many different spurs are available.
