Is the stock motor timing set at 0 degrees?

[Psycho-Savvy]

I have done a search and read the sticky but I still can't come up with a straight answer. Does the stock motor have positive timing or is it set a zero? Is there any difference when running the motor in reverse? thanks

It's set at 0. Forward and Reverse have the same speed.

That is what I needed to know, thanks for the help.

It also has positive timing, so if you flip your tranny it will ruin the motor very fast.

Motor Info.

If your thinking of flipping the tranny round then this should put you off till you have a spare motor to throw in when the stock one dies.

Is there any other hardcore evidence on the timing? I have searched and found just as many post saying it is zero as saying it is positive.

my dads motor seems to run faster in reverse, and thats with 2 different radios so I dont think we had a setting wrong

THE TIMMING ON THE STOCK MOTOR IS ADVANCED. PERIOD.

as for your dads running faster in reverse, if he has his motor/tyranny flopped, then he has either flipped his wiring, or flipped the switch. Either or...
Doesn't matter, of your motor is flipped the its going to be faster in reverse, because technically that is forward

Mine does too. It came like that out of the box.

Anyone think re-seting the ESC would fix this?^^

MRCnoob - Give it a try and let us know if it helps, won't do any harm to try.
