Hey guys, just picked up a Reventon Pro ESC + Competition V3.0 17.5R to put into my b4 2wd buggy. I will be running stock blinky mode on an outdoor track of medium size. Just wondering what rotor and sensor to use for this and what would be a good base line f.d.r to start with.

Finally got the Reventon S going in my buggy last night and the Wifi module working today. Very smooth control and the Wifi module is the cats a$$! I see that there isn't a 'hybrid boost' setting with the S model. Are there any future plans to incorporate this setting into the S model?
Thank you

I have programmed my Reventon R to do forward/reverse. However I have a problem with it: It won't always do reverse. I pull back many times on the transmitter but nothing happens. It seems to do reverse sometimes but not always.
The strange thing is that the brake function always works fine, so there is nothing wrong with the signal...

Did you come to a full stop before release and and pull back again?
Thank you

Another option you could try, and I posted a question about this was try using the ESC timing features starting from 0 RPM, etc. or whatever is similar to how mechanical timing is, and set timing values on the ESC. You can then from there determine with timing setting works well and then purchase the corresponding sensor board.

Which color is the 12.5mm hi-torque rotor? If it's out of stock, does any other brand's rotor fit in the MMM? (17.5) Thanks!

Hey guys,
thinking about getting a new ESC for my 417,
and I´m tending to try the new LRP Flow, as it´s already quite popular here in Europe. My second favorite is the Reventon Pro, as I only had the best experience with Speed Passion so far.
I´m running 17,5t blinky most of the time, but have to use LRP X12 motor by law.
I would appreciate any pro and contras you may have for me!
And can the Reventon be run Forward / Brake+ Reverse in blinky mode?
I know my old sP can, but the manual of the Reventon seems to say no.
BR,
Matthias
