MMP Start Power

[Lauri]

Thank you Patrick for the answers. I will try to do some tests and figure out what was causing this weird issue.

Guys, don't point out the obvious ;) I was geared ok. FYI 17.5T I was geared somewhat slow 4.45FDR. Most other guys went as much as 4.0FDR. I didn't go that fast because I used the CHEAT mode and needed to keep the temps down. I could have gone 4.2FDR without going over 80C but didn't want to risk it last time, it was borrowed motor. 5.5T was geared 6.8FDR and it was the maximum I could go without overheating the motor. I gear by laptimes and check motor temps. LiPo came from stock race I think around 30C and droped to room temp 20C before the next start. From modified 5.5T it comes a bit warmer, maybe 35-40C max and drops to room temp. But this topic was about the MMP and Start Power setting which I didn't understand ;)

I'm getting a new LiPo just to be sure. I will run them back-to-back to see if it makes a difference. I'll be adding a external cap to the MMP just to save the LiPo from the pulsing current. Don't really like tha fact that MMP has very small internal caps. This can't hurt anything.

Until all relevant information is provided, nothing is obvious, especially in forums. Didn't mean to hurt your feelings asking these silly little questions in an effort to help you out.

Looks like you have this one covered all by your lonesome
