Hi Patrick,

I have a Recoil and I went to test it out today with the Mamba Max and it ran hot. The motor I'm using is the Mega ACn16/15/1 (9200Kv) and the gearing is 16T/58T. Now the funny thing is that I was using a 60A ESC and it was working really good until I changed the timing setting and I burned some FETs. The 60A ran about 4-5 hours and never got as hot as the Mamba Max did today. I have the newest firmware and all, but what is the appropriate timing you recommend for a 6 pole motor. Most other companies recommend 15-30 degrees of timing, 15 being for optimum performance and 30 for maximum power.

Regards.
