Hey I need some advice....I'm frustrated with my TQI telemetry, the mph is off at idle it reads 6 to 8 mph sitting still. Every pass max mph is 26, my trusty GPS reads mid 60's. temp sensor is off by 100 degrees, it reads 270 to 280 after 3 minutes. Infra red reads 170 to 180...? In 50 degree weather. No where on the Traxxas website is any info about calibration, any advise? Thanks a lot :(:
 
You must must be running it on a nitro. Your speed sencor is on the motor fly wheel and it give you a speed relitive to the rpm. If it was an electric the sencor would be on the spear gear and it would read 0mph. The temp sencor, Is it wraped around the once or twice? I found I had higher read when it was wraped around twice.
 
Sorry, I lost Internet conn and didn't think it posted. I couldn't see the two of them.
