OK and back again to this topic the VFS2000....

Do I need to unhook the red servo wire from the esc when using a seperate receiver pack?

regards,
Pizza

Wassup Bert?!?!!

I saw you online. Thanks for the geat support!! Thanks also for the help at the Nats.

Q; can I keep the stock motor settings you programmed in my EVO3 for 19t this weekend at Fernando's or do I need to do the "increase all" thing a few clicks with my handheld?

Jason,
We sued the same setting at Snowbirds for stock and 19T. If the comm looks really bad, then I would move the entire graph up. Same is true if you run out of runtime.

Is there any benifit from using the KO Super Shotki diode with another brand ESC (like my LRP Quantum Competition for instance )? It looks cleaner on the motor if that matters....

Yepo, I've got those as well ....but just like car setups, you can never have to many, and I'd like to try as many as I can to see what suits my driving/trigger style best

I tried to make my own cable..but decided to hold off and get the KO cable...good thing I did...there was no doo-hickys but plenty of what-cha-ma-callits thingies and circuits in there....

serial/usb cable adapter... don't know how well these work..but worth a shot if you don't have a seriel port..

The software looks for a serial port. It won't communicate out a usb port. At least the version I downloaded wouldn't. Hmmm, maybe a re-program is in order.

pin 3 - Tx

I'd imagine the black wire is ground with Tx and Rx being on the 2 remaining wires. It doesn't usually matter if you get Tx/Rx around the wrong way but it won't work properly. If this happens just reverse the Tx/Rx and it should work okay.

Of course you do this at your own risk, but if someone could give the exact pinout it'd be much less risky

Anyone tried this yet?
Or could anyone please confirm this.....?
