No it will not work with Mac based computers unless you are running windows in Parallel or boot camp.
For speedo settings I never change from this for spec.
PWM 4k
Punch 10
BPWM 2K
Initial brake 10
drag brake 5

You only need the USB to update the software and right now there is no new software for the VX3. Only what comes on it.

Another Q.
I am trying to setup my VXX (4.1) Mod profile to manual recommended settings for the TX 17.5 but some of the parameters don`t have the range depicted in the manual. Such as recommended timing range is 27-36 but the max on my programer shows 30.
Is the manual written based on a different Firm Ware, if so how do the values correlate?

Nevermind, to answer my own question I was trying to setup a Mod profile with Stock recommended settings. Switched to Stock mode and all is as shown in manual.
Is there any gain to be had running a 17.5 in Mod mode?

I've been playing around with a motor analyser and I'll tell you right now, all the motors from the same manufacturers are different in relation to the end bell marks. They are more of a ballpark. But the slightest little difference in timing makes em really sing. I know it's not the answer you're looking for, but unfortunately it's true.

This is an attempt to post what I received from EA this evening. Doubt the pictures will show as they do when I received it in MS Word. Still should be helpful though.
