Hi guys,
New to brushless and Speed Passion,
I was having a look at this new software and it says the 528 is for only Super stock 2.1 esc?
Am i missing something?
Does it work for mod and superstock? Just wanting to know as i have 2 classes i wish to run and though i would updated the software for each class.
And what are the benefits of this software?
At my local track the guys said that the hobby wing software works in the esc? is this correct?
If so what is the benefits or differesnces between the 2 software?
Sorry for the questions as i said new to this brshless thing. But am pleased so far!!
So pleased got them for 2 cars!!!!

Cool! Is it a very noticable improvement to 422?

There is no need to delete the previous version that is the 1,33
Unzip the downloaded file and inside you will find the 1,33 version setup.exe + settings.db3 /version control.ini + .doc file (is a small manual about the SC software)
Copy these 2 files (settings.db3 , version control.ini) and past to your SP directory that should be XX(normally is C):\Program Files\Speedpassion USB Link V1.33

When it will ask overwrite 2 filesa select “yes” and you will have the last firmware release.

Hoping what i wrote is clear

Default Problem with 2.0 LPF

Hi Gents

Hoping somebody can help or has had a similar problem.

I am running a Novak 17.5 Ballistic with a 2.0 LPF SP Esc with 100422 Software.
The car was great at the last club race.
However, I tried it out today and the Supercharger will not engage.
I did not change any settings etc.
Tried another motor no luck.

Is the ESC Damaged or can it be something else. I have also checked all the wiring and the battery.

franco: when in doubt just reset everything using the desktop software. Confirm and update the ESC twice and double check things are the way they should be.

for some reason the esc loses calibration with the radio, re calibrate and it should be fine. I'm at the point I just do it everytime I turn it on

Hi all,

new here and to tc racing. I've got a SP GT2.0 Pro and SP 17.5t, I've got the LCD Professional program card and installed the latest software v1.33. I've got loads of questions so appologise if they already been posted I didn't really want to read 300+ pages

Can I use the lcd Professional programmer with out my pc or do I need to use the program card that came with the esc ? if I can use the lcd one how, as if I try it without the pc it just says 'please upgrade software' ?

I presume I set the timing on the motor to 0deg and the adjust timing via the card/pc ?

What are the actual timing values, as in the software interface the AMTS is just listed 1 to 8 ?

That's the main things I'm stuck on at the moment

Thanks.
