Great job Tekin

I have Galaxy S4 KitKat 4.4, I can use the app now

RS2 has great feel on track.

Brakes are way better than before

Blinky software very fast

Runs cool

Overall amazing package

Your hard work is paying off

Well done guys

Some phones don't put put enough power. So you can "Try" plugging it all in and powering up your car. It works on certain devices.

The app does require your phone to have OTG support so google your device and do some quick research.

Hey Randy, do you think it would be possible to add the throttle curve setting in a future update. That's the only thing lacking Imo that would make the whole package complete. May just be me but find myself using that function more than any other .

I have a Galaxy S3 with 4.3 on it and a HW 1.0. the app is working and reads that my RS specs have vegas 250 on them, but it will still has max throttle at 20. The program on my laptop allows up to 30, which is what I run in with my 25.5 gen II in VTA. is there an update I missed or is this where the app is right now?

Default Throttle logging Rx8 system Gen2 and temps

Throttle never shows 100 forward or -100 braking in data logging, this is after esc calibration. Futaba radio system shows ~92% and Spectrum system is even lower at ~ 85%. You can achieve 100% data logging throttle by increasing transmitter end point after calibration but RPMs in data logging seems not to reflect any increase.

Randy,

You have noted that data logging temps of motor is much higher than external can temp check. Wondering what would be the highest acceptable data logging motor temp? And ESC logging temp?

It depends on the motor/application. ON stock or spec I try to keep the temps under 220f in most cases which is generally 180-190 on the can. Again this can very greatly if there's air flow on the can, etc.

You have to install it from the Google App store I think
