thats pretty nice on the 4 pole 540 usability.
Ah, Didnt know about Josh leaving. Last I saw viper had him on the main page. I thought it was about carpet nats... No mater. I actually like the viper esc's. Kinda curious as to why Josh left. So he races for you now?

Good to see you in the offroad forum Eric. I have owned EAM esc, battery and motor. I ran onroad at IIC this past October. I was not running the EA gear yet and was super slow. I did not have the power the other guys had. Running an Xray( he runs xray as well) I went to Eric and he not only sold me the right stuff, he wired up the speedo and motor. I went out with my new electronics in the car for my last qualifier of the event and picked up a whole lap. No joke. The Orca esc is truely top notch stuff. And Eric is super easy to work with as far as emails etc. I ended up buying 2 more esc's for friends back home. Great stuff.
Never got to say thanks Eric so here it is. THANKS MAN!
Cant wait to see you and Lemieux run the xb4.

Good to hear from you! Thanks for the kind words! Ive been running off road and now have off road shorty packs and saddle packs coming some figured I should pop over on this side a little. The XB4 has been very good thus far. It held up great at the Crazy Psycho Nitro blast track. It was blown out and hard on equipment but held together long enough for me to win the 4wd class! Hope to see you at the track again!
He runs my batteries and motors now. He actually bought the Speedo's motors and batteries for the Carpet nats out of his pocket and we have since worked it out for him to run it the rest of the year just as a friend helping friend thing. No contracts or anything like that. He wants to keep the fun in racing.

lol, I was at your site poking around. Most sites give 3 to 4 views of the esc. So you can see where the sensor port its, does it have 2 sensor ports, how sturdy the switch looks, etc. Personally I would add more perspectives on the esc's. I tried to google and get a better look, but all I could find was your pictures and ones of the older model.

Thanks for your feedback and will implement some new pics.

yep, Just trying to give you some constructive feedback. For the price tag on those esc's you really want to show it off. If you have 1 mounted in a tlr 22 or b4, I would take a picture for these forums so people can see how it fits. For the website some multi perspective shots are nice. Also, I have no idea how that programmer works or what pc software is needed, but I would also suggest a couple how to videos on youtube. How to calibrate, how to use the program box and maybe a run through on the PC application if there is one. make one of those sponsored guys make the videos, lol. I vote Bob.....

I have one in my XB4 which is limited on space on that side. I'll snap some pics of it tonight.
There is no PC software needed or used. All programming is done through the hand held programmer and its the easiest of any I have used. Once you plug it in its pretty self explanatory really. They made it super easy on purpose.
The only time a PC is needed is if ORCA releases new software and then you can update it using the USB adapter. It also updates the program box if required at the same time. That also is really easy to do and takes seconds.

I saw the usb adapter and figured there must be software for flashing or even configuring the esc. Viper, Tekin, HW, SP and others have an application that updates firmware and allows PC configuration of the esc. I never use the pc for anything but firmware updates. But some people like it. I am sure the box is easy and I am sure I would have no issues. But others will, lol.
