no help?

I used the Radioshack resistor 50ohm 10W, but the resistor gets hot. There are no error messages, but I havent noticed if there is strobing
My setup is similar to Knightcom's but Im still in the process of making it.

stupid angel eyes died again. :thumbsdown:

John, I just got a new set of resistors and relays for my LED's. I'm gonna install them tomorrow. I'll give you my old set of resistors and wires at the Central Cali meet.

any strobing or problems with the Idrive?

Does the resistor get as hot like the ceramic resistors?

They get almost too hot to handle and are a little cooler than the ceramic resistors, despite their smaller size.
