In some setup sheets I have seen that you can choose HB Boost active 30% but in which firmware? I have tested all and canīt go below 40%.

Please re-try safe mode.

Hi Nexus,

I think you mean the Value button ?

Even, this one or the other are doing the same result.

I've tried to re-flash the card in 2.4 and then in 2.7 and tried to re-flash the Esc, not working, always the same messages just after choosing a firmware (see pics).

Thanks,

Hi,

I'm running a SpeedPassion GT 2.0 LPF (which may seem outdated to some) and was wondering if I desperately need the SP programming card to update the firmware or are there other cards that I can use ?
I know the Hobbywing 2 in 1 and 3 in 1 work (according to the forum) but is it the only one that works ? Any other cards that work too?

Finally, would it be safe to run no fan on the Speedo while running a x12 13.5 t?

Thanks in advance

Regards,
Mat.

Hey guys, would I be correct in assuming that I can replace the Reventon Pro capacitor with any 2200uf 25V cap?

Let me look at this later tonight and get back to you.


You don't have to run a fan on the speed or toward the motor, but every little bit helps in onroad. If I had a choice I would put a high power fan blowing to the motor.


It's been done. I've seen others put other brand caps on with no issues. In either, a cap is a cap is a cap :P

Do i need to switch a motor wire to get my buggy to run in the forward direction? i have a futaba 4pks radio (throttle in reverse), SP reventon pro speedo. i've programmed the speedo to learn the transmitter a number of times.if i switch my throttle on my radio all that does is switch throttle direction of my radio.

this setup is on a durango dex410v3 off road buggy.

i have run a reventon pro 1.1 in 13.5 with no fan no problems.
However its at my risk.
Always use a large 40mm fan direct on back of motor works well

Hi,

Just a very quick question that I think shouldn't be hard to answer.
I have been out of this hobby for 3 years, and in that time, ESC software have been bugging me to stay up to date.

I own a SP GT2.0 Lpf (never updated) with a 13.5t, and while I know that to be legal in 'blinky', I need to use the 'no timing 508' software.

Sadly I don't have a programming card yet and therefore to emulate at best the behaviour of that software, can I simply put the ESC timing to zero and get used to the driving that way ? And then I will update to 508...

Finally, what is the factory stock software on a GT 2.0 LPF ?

Thanks.

I bought a used GT2.0Pro esc, I loaded V1.36 to my computer.

I connect the esc to the LCD program box, the positive and negative are correct. I then plug the USB cable into the program box and into the USB port on my computer.

I bring up the V1.36 program on my computer and the program box just says 'Connecting to Computer' but never connects.

Now if I plug the esc into the 2s battery of the car, the 'ESC Speed Control' on the computer lights up bright green and the program stuff comes up on the computer where I can change settings, but the 'Busy' box on the computer still shows and the LCD program card still says connecting to computer.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.

If you run the GT Pro/LPF (non Reventon) ESCs you need the battery connected to the programmer box when connected to a computer for it to work.

Then you make all the changes via the computer software.


With Reventon ESCs you DO NOT need the battery connected when hooking up to a computer. If you do this with the Reventon bad things will happen.

Thanks! That will get me started, now I need to figure out why the settings aren't submitting to the esc.

I'm at a loss, I have the V1.36 program on my computer screen, LCD box is hooked up correctly, car battery is plugged in, ESC is turned on.

The LCD box just says 'Connecting PC'.

And the computer screen pops up a box that says 'The current version (V3_508_no timing) can not be updated to the version (V3.0_110119_Mod)'

What am I doing wrong??

Thanks.
