New LRP Flow Esc
#107
Ran the Flow last night in 13.5 blinky sedan. It's flawless. Everything you've come to expect from LRP's perfect feel, brakes, etc. It finally feels like an ESC I can install and forget about. No programming boxes, brake or throttle frequencies and other distractions. Just pure, smooth power and great brakes.

Oh geez this is gonna hurt
Ok guys,
I have to say it.
Every time,and I say again,every time I used to think ill give lrp a go,the speedy dies or have issues.
I've pulled more than a few apart and I must say these are the worst manufactured esc on the market and have been for years.
From the capacitors,resistors,boards,tabs...even soldering on the board is very,very,very ugly,flimsy,and almost dry solder joins.
Buy a Speedpassion.
Ahhhhh that's better.

and it cut off after about 4.55 min and it suits me fine for practice, because then i can just disable mode 7 for racing :-)
but its all about testing and finding the right settings

Have you noticed on your ESC that mode 6, you Can actually go up to a value of 5, rather than the stated "3" in the manual.... On the bench I put it in 4, and anything above 1/4 throttle made the whole car vibrate like crazy... But in "5" it was fine... Strange huh.

How to remove the switch (properly)
Hey guys,
just got my FLOW. Got it all wired up and soldered the two wires of the on off switch together like I always do on my speedos. Then I wanted to test it. So I plugged a battery in. Nothing happened
Used a freshly charged battery, still no reaction.
I almost wanted to give it back to my LHS.
But before that I unsoldered the wires of the switch and tried again.
...and it worked
So just as a tip for those who want to remove the switch:
Just remove the switch and insulate the two wires.
DO NOT SOLDER THEM TOGETHER! (like i did)

Almost forgot to ask:
Does anyone have a good starting setup for a small low grip carpet track with 17,5T X12 boosted and a good FDR as a starting point?
Really stoked for the first ride with the new speedo
