@wollow86 - well hope yours is just a case of replacing the sensor cable - SP provides a very short cable and in order to fit, we sometimes overstretch it and end up with a loose contact; or checking gear mesh (...this one produces a very loud and rough sound) or well, while your at it, check tightness of pinion grub screws - I did experience this loud and rough sound with one of my pinions (29T48P) before, i think the pitch doesn't match my spur's...replaced it with a better one.

V19 is available in my choices for update firmware at SP Interface. I do have Muchmore Fleta installed as well.

The problem is there without the motor installed in a car. I've tried just about every combination of motors, sensor wires and software I can. All the motors and sensor wires work fine with a different esc. Only possible thing left is a hardware fault with the esc sensor board.

@wollow86 - oh i get it, your motor is not installed yet. well, i have not experienced that yet.. but good luck on your search/isolation of possible cause(s) of the problem. Mine ended with using a different software version. If it didn't then definitely, i'll be looking for another potential cause... it would have been easier if SP would have simply wrote me an email on how to sort out the problem though...

So what would MuchMore software do for my Reventon Pro in stock0. I'm running a 17.5R MMM with 30 deg timing. Also what size rotor should I choose if I want a little bit more power. The guys at my track are running Tekin esc with RevTech motors.

I got a brand new Reventon Pro today and throttle/brake does not work. I can do a radio setup and use the LCD box but it does not react on radio input. Steering works. I tried different software versions too. This is not fun. Brand new...

Try reverse your throttle on your radio and recalibrate...

Tried it again and now it worked. Must be a glitch or something. Thanks! Using a KO radio.

MuchMore software will make normally run your speedo cooler and the throttle curve will be a little bit smoother.

Don't change the size of your rotor, a bigger rotor will give you a little more torque but less speed...with the stock0 mode, that's not a good solution, you'll certainly have a lack of top speed in comparison to others.

For 17.5...depends on the size of the track, I am using 34* timing (yellow board around middle position) and gear at 3.1 to 3.2 (that is on a large 1/8th size track...) outdoor. Rotor need to be a legal rotor.....12.3mm, stock one came with the motor is fine.

I'm going to PM you my number, please call at your earliest convenience. Problem is, I'm at the office from 6:30 am to 5:00 pm Pacific. A Main Hobbies sent me a replacement programming card, but I'm encountering the same problem. It really seems like the USB driver isn't installing properly. A Main says they will not accept the ESC for return, so if this doesn't work, looks like I'm out $90.
