SPEKTRUM TELEMETRY

• Set the car next to a ruler and at 0" then roll the car

forward by hand, counting each revolution of the reference

mark. At exactly 10 revolutions stop the car.

• Measure the exact distance that the car traveled in ten revolutions

and divide this distance by 10 (i.e. 12.0" divided by 10 = 1.20").

• In the Roll Out screen press the + or – button until 1.20 appears on the

screen. Now all the rpm related functions will be displayed in mph.

Method B

For this method you either need to know the internal gear ratio (normally

provided in the vehicle’s manual) or be able to calculate the ratio via

the number of teeth on the gears. It is also necessary to calculate the

circumference (distance around) the tire. Once the internal ratio is known,

and the circumference in inches has been determined, simply divide the

circumference by the internal ratio and use this value as the conversion.
To calculate circumference—multiply 3.14 x the tire’s diameter in inches
To calculate internal gear ratio—divide the larger gear by the

small gear. With multiple gear transmissions, it is necessary

to multiply each of the ratios to arrive at the final ratio.
