great video but questions
The video help was great to follow along with. Now the question I have for you is as follows, I saw in video #2 that when using the the software on your computer that you had the option to set the more advanced options for turbo. After following you setup instruction to the letter I didnt have these options available to me on my computer.I did have some of the advanced timing options on the 2 in 1 programmer. Is this normal or did I not do something correct?

Also it may be useful to RUN THE HW SOFTWARE AS ADMINISTRATOR for VISTA and WINDOWS7.
Hopefully this will help other wise uninstall the Hobbywing software and re install it that may help also.
If none of this works then it may be something else that a PC GURU may be able to help out with here.
Hope it helps and glad you like the VIDS. If you like 'em leave some comments on You Tube it's always fun reading them.

You've either not got the lastest PC application or not flashed both the lcd box (twice) and your ESC firmware (once). Can you outline all steps taken thus far please, and what are the version ID's of the firmware files in the PC manager?

Honestly Andysan you need to flash the ESC twice too matey, we have had issues with 528 with weak brakes and wandering Neutral points WITHOUT the double flash, just play it safe always and flash the ESC twice it takes no time and seems to solve the problems.

Ah sorry, my bad. Thanks for clearing that up!

Give it a try it is a free fix...Maybe...

Sorry for the Double post but if anybody from Hobbywing is monitoring the thread could you possibly send me an Extreme Stock so that we can run stress tests and subject it to the amount of abuse that we have given the XERUN Speedo's that we have bought, abused and generally 'fiddled' with over the months.
Also can we get hold of the programming suite so we can work on profiles of our own to share back to the community..........
Just a thought........ Never know it don't hurt to ask !!!

Wires and capacitor
I jave just receive my second xerun this time 60a version and on this is 14awg
Wire and smal capacitor board. Can i benefit from 12awg wire and capacitor Like on 120a version or 60a version don't need this upgrade.
Is this capacitor ok to use? I have speedpassion super capacitor board probably better then this one.
I use 10.5t motor pushed to the limit so it's Like running 5.5 or 6.5 without turbo timing.
Can i use same setup as on 120a for 10.5t motor?
Thanks

Well my run at West Kent on Sunday was awesome. Firstly the car was set good, but I turned down the DDRS to 4 and kept turbo Max, but with timing punch at min (6), so the acceleration was much lazier and FTD'd. I was caning the car out the corners on full throttle with no wheelspin and I was convinced that was the quickest way! - Made the car so easy to drive, yet still had great top speed. Turbo Delay 0.4 . By the way, this was with a GM 13.5 motor.

I tried my new 120A v2.1 with mod software this weekend and are very happy with the perfomance. Runs cool, great feeling and good brakes. My Orion 4.5t didnīt heat up at all. Still missing some top speed but havenīt started to tweak the settings yet. Plenty of more to come. The lap times are already competitive.
I used to run LRP SXX but I think this ESC can hold itīs own against any other ESC on the market.
