thats not what you asked.

are you trying to ask, after the supercharger is engaged and you let off the throttle how do you control it, cause that doesn't even make sense. why do you need to control boost when off throttle? if you wanna know how do you control it after you let off then get back on, then that would be by the throttle delay you have set, or the rpm delay you have set....

or where you just trying to tell a joke and it went over like a fart in a submarine

btw, how about them links I asked for, you have any??

I have GT ESC V1.1-LPF Edition that I never used, my 1/12th track disappeared. I am going to run some 1/10th dirt at a new track and was wondering if I can update from V1.1 software. I don't see any mention of it on the website.

Looking to run 13.5/17.5 2S Lipo and Futaba 603FS.

Sorry, V1.1 is not upgradable. However, I think it is still capable to race in dirt or off road in stock class...you will be short from those who use BOOST and SUPERCHARGER...

Time to upgrade to GT2.1 series.

Default gt 2 no timing light where is it?

Hello. Need some help finding the flashing light that indicates Im running stock no timing on my gt 2.0.pro
Ive definetly changed my software no problem. Trouble is the only light I can find seems to be coming from the base, red when I throttle forward or backward.
User manual shows 2 leds green and red near the motor sensor cable that I dont seem to have on mine.
Thanks in advance!

Try pulling the sensor cable and looking there. That's what one guy I know said he did to get through tech at the offroad nats.

I had the same issue. I was able to fix this when I set my Throttle EPA to 100% on both braking and acceleration. Also, the throttle curve/expo to 0. Recalibrate and you should be good.

I'm guessing you're motor is connected properly, including sensor wire, correct?

For all the GT2 series ESC, when 508_no_timing software is loaded for no timing sportsman event, the bottom of the ESC, with the semi-clear bottom case, will spot the RED LED is on....the RED LED is the only indication when you are using the 508_no_timing software.

If you are running any OTHER software, there will be no LED lit at the bottom until it is on throttle or brakes.

GT2 circuit board was designed way before this NO TIMING thing happened. Our next generation ESC will have all the LED indication above or on the SIDE of the ESC.

Ok so I double checked my software, uninstalled then reinstalled V1 508 no timing!
Set my throttle forward and back to %100
I have the clear bottom esc but still only have a red light when i throttle
no green at all

My motor sensor cable only has 5 conductors the original had 6! Could that be it?
Swapped sensor cable thats not it.
un installed program from computer then reinstalled using v1.33 nothing

Did you recalibrate the ESC to the radio? Need to do that after changing firmware/software.

Hi all, have a question that hopefully you can help me with.

I'm running a Yokomo BD with a 6.5T Orion. Will the SP GT V2.1 EX be able to support this?

Thanks!

Ordering a V2.1 Pro Stock tomorrow.

What is meant by recalibrating the the esc to the radio? I've heard it mentioned before but not quite sure what it means and how it is done.
