Irgo if you dont understand english to well im attaching a picture to show you how to use the USB in your GT 2.0

that would be annoying must plug and unplug from receiver or esc

Actually I find the LCD much simpler then the program box, its smaller, much better quality, and makes programing easier by displaying everyting on the back lit LCD ... especialy at night or indoors

Oh just buy the LCD, if you want to use the USB/PC/SOFTWARE updates on your 2.0 you dont have a choice.

BTW, no PRO ESC comes with the USB hardware, they are all conisdered options because you dont really "need" it to use the esc.
The only exeption is the GM 120 which comes with the USB harware ... but for $300 you should expect it.

Hi guys,

I have a small problem; My rotor has worn out where it touches en 'slides' between the bearings. Especially the side where the pinion is situated. The bearings are OK, but the shaft is completely worn out. I'm running a SP competion version 2.0 4.5T motor.
What could be the cause of this? Everything is installed 'spot on' in my car, so no play, no binding, no worn out pulleys or things of that nature. Could it be that the bearings heat up too much, or maybe the bearings can't keep up the revs? If so, would ceramic bearings be a better choise?

In order to make sure I'm going to buy the right rotor, could someone please tell me what the difference is between these rotors:

SP High RPM competition rotor for 4.5T
PN#RB13845

OR

SP Pro racing rotor for brushless 4.5T
PN#RA13845

And to complete my line of questions, which one is the stock rotor that comes with the motor??
I have no clue, can't find it anywhere...

Thank you in advance guys.

The std rotor for that motor is :

SP Pro racing rotor for brushless 4.5T
PN#RA13845
It should be a 13mm rotor with the high rpm one being a 12.5

as for the wear its hard to suggest what could be the cause and a pic would help.

Some older radios require a wider neutral range.
