Hmmm, just when you thought you couldn't polish a turd.

If it runs in vista, it will run in 7.

My wifes brother who lives in Belarus is using windows 7 (maybe a beta version????) and says its a lot quicker than Vista, but I will be pretty limited in choice to what OS I get with my new laptop.

It will either be some version of Vista, or 7 if it's publically available then

Well, if it does that would be awesome

I'm just not sure how what your saying would be the case, as not all versions of windows will support Hotwire...

7 is signifigantly faster than vista as they have really reworked how the OS handles memory... its a lighter OS with less overhead. How applications work hasn't changed so Vista programs will work no problem in 7. However, the crappy as hell interface of vista remains.

One of the key selling point of 7, per microsoft, is that it will run any program that vista will run as the key elements to how apps run, hasn't changed. They are making that very clear because of all the backlash they got from the move from XP to vista.

Does the RS / RS Pro operate on frequencies that would cause a non-2.4ghz radio system to glitch? I'm still using FM in the 75mhz band.

.Net doesn't need to be rewritten for different versions of an OS, only when they release a new version of .net . From what i can see most of the hotwire relies on .Net classes etc. I've tried it in the Windows 7 RC and it works.

The RS is perfectly fine to use with 27 and 75 mhz band radios.

thanks for the swift answers guys, good to know!

(lets just hope 7 is quicker than Vista, or it will be time to go home from racing by the time i've got the hotwire configured )

I have been dual booting my macbook as well, but now my bootleg XP keeps asking me to register and won't let me do anything until I do.

Anyone have an ISO image of Windows 7 they can email me?

hi what is the differances between the 189 and 194?
i runing the 189 at the min with 10.5 and must say its very good, but as i dont have a lap top i didnt want to change it as it means a journey home if its not as good and a wasted race meeting.

Beginning was wicked fast when it was sensord but once in sensorless there really wasn't any speed left. I began timing very low and had timing till 80 or 90. Tempetures were ok. After i put it even higher it began to stutter in sensorless mode.

Could be that i didn't find the sweet spot yet but after 3 days of trying out on the circuit i put it on sensord and now it is working how it should be. A little less rollout then i normaly run and i have speed from the start and it keeps going building up speed till the end. So probably i still have to test the dual mode a lot to find the right spot but for now i will just run it in sensord during the races. It really is much simpler and less frustration :-).

I run now rollout of around 29.5mm on quite big 1/8 tracks with timing on 9. Any higher timing and the motor will stutter like mad. I think the novak motors have a standard timing of 12.

I did find that the esc ran a lot hotter in sensord mode then in dual mode. Probably the esc needs to do a lot more work? A fan is really needed if you don't want to get backed electronics.

I also have problems with speed in large tracks, motors mods (LRPX12 4.5, SP4.5 ver2, LRP 5.5 X12) I run in dual mode timing 80-90, temp ok, lipo 2S, car T2-008

Wow, ok, you guys are getting off topic. This is a Tekin thread, and certainly not a software piracy request thread.
