Hey guys,just wanted to know what setting's you guy's are using on your MMM. I am using my in a losi 8t, i race for time to time and just wanted
to know what you guy's set your's to. I am looking for somthing that will
run cool for a race,and what gearing you use as well mostly on a losi 8t2.0
truggy. Thanks.
Well, let us know what motor you are using and what gearing you are using.
I usually set the punch and brake at 50% and work from there. Brake setting is pretty obvious, increase it until the truck brakes too hard. Punch control I usually work the other way, decrease it until the vehicle feel a bit sluggish. These setting will maximize runtime, but the best way to get great results is drive very smoothly. Try not to brake hard, and accelerate smoothly.
I also set the start power at medium, and leave the timing at normal.
I am useing a mmm esc and a castle 2200 motor,with a 46 tooth spur and have used a
12, 14. 15, pinion.The 12 ran a bit slow,15 seems to run a bit hot at times,the highest
was about 160, so i tryed a 14 seems to be a good all around pinion,temps run about
120 to 145.And have had the problem that a lot o f people have had here,the dreaded
FAN! Have had 2 fans go bad so i pull it out and ran it without it for a while.Temps seem
to go up and down just trying to find the right setup.

Just like linc said. Drive smooth try not to brake hard did i mention drive smooth. I also run a 48 t spur with a 14t pinion my fan almost never comes on. Dont forget esc has to reach 150 for it to come on.
Running 5s will help temps as it doesnt work as hard.
Did we mention to drive smooth. Just cause it is 4wd doesnt mean you have to go full throttle all the time trust me you are faster being smooth.
You guys do realize you can save your setting to a file from within the link software, then open it up in notepad to see the settings right? Then you can copy/paste them here. Sure beats taking screenshots or writing everything down...
