Been running the v20 blinky with the pro so far it's good running with a 13.5 v3 with the green sensor board max timing fdr at 5.10. Temps about 130degrees
Tryin the red board later

I have a problem with my LCD smart box
This week, I program my Reventon Pro with my LCD smart box with no problem
At this track this week-end, I plug the LCD with the ESC ... He light up but nothing happened ...
At home, I plug it with my PC without problem ... I can change setting easy
So I wanted to reset the Card but I cannot only plug my LCD in the CPU (with holding the reset buton), he only light up and nothing happens
Ideas ?

finally got the chance to use my Reventon Pro in a boosted 17.5 class today at speedworld raceway. The temp at the end of the day was about 62 degrees. The track temp was 86 degrees. The tires I used were Sorex 28's.
motor is a MMM 17.5, with the red board. Sensor board was in the center position. I used fans on the motor and the controller.
FDR was 7.05
car is a Schumacher M I 4 CXL
These were the settings:
1. forward brake only
2 .volt protection ,none
3. heat protection. disabled
4. brake force, 80%
5. dragbrake, custom , 02%, ( i dont like a lot of drag brake, i prefer to
let the car roll for more corner speed).
6. neutral range, 6%
7. DRRS-3, level 9
8. HB active, 90%
9. HB Maximun, 150k
10. HB start RPM, 4000 rpm
11. HB Delay, 0.1 second
at the end of main, the temp on the motor was 138 degrees. the temp on the speed-o was 95 degrees.
I finished in 4th place. The winners best lap was 15.2 seconds. My best lap was 15.6 seconds.
I let other drivers drive my car, and they had better lap times then the winner.
a great starting place for boosted 17.5. As always, keep a close eye on the motor temps.

Hi guys. I'm having a bit of troulbe making this reventon as quick as the GT2.1. Do you have to run different gearing for the reventon?
My GT2.1 setting are..........
Timing 44
Turbo 20
Start 6000
ACC 400
Delay 0.3
My reventon setttings are...........
Hybrid active 70%
Hybrid boost 150K
Start 6000
Delay 0.2
I use a MMM13.5 at 15deg timing, geared at 6.77 using a T3 12 on a track that is 36m x 14m.
Thanks for any advice.

firstly id narrow your RPM Range, and drop your delay to 0.1
try a higher DRRS say at 7 upwards, and even go to 80-90 Boost %

what means two blinking lights red one and orange one on Reventon R? Looks like when it happened was no timing just flat blinky mode...? I had to off and on Reventon to back to normal operating but it happens all the time... Few laps before final was fine and when stopped my car on the position for race it started with no boost and no timing... just blinky.. New speedo, new motor... old receiver. Maybe receiver? Also few times lost control on my car, didnt brake at all just full power..

Change your motor...it might be the sensor board inside the motor that acting it.

Hi,
I received the Reventon pro and have it in the car. I raced the last 2 weekends and love the punch and braking power. However after a 5 min heat race when I stop the car. The ESC is turning itself off. I also had it shut itself off when I had crashed near the end of a heat and was waiting to be marshaled. I am running 21.5 Blinky. The lipo cut off is turned off as well as the temp cut off. I also added the fan to see if it would help but it does not.
Any ideas ? LMK Thank you.

I believe it is V18 I didn't updated the software on the esc yet.
