You need to unplug the ESC from the receiver and plug a battery pack into it.

yes you just plug it into the sensor port and turn on the switch. no unpluggin of the receiver. just did mine last night changing drag break. make sure you get the ding ding when you plug the wire in so that windows gets that first before you plug the wire into the sensor port. all 3 lights light up if working right as far as I know.

hey Nash, i was working with mine monday night, and i have to unplug it from the receiver or it won't connect to the computer.

i think it depends on what brand radio/receiver you're using.

I use sanwa and don't have to disconnect the speedo from the receiver, I know other that use the spectrum 2.4 and have to disconnect from the receiver.

1. plug in usb lead to pc and speedo ( disconnect speedo from receiver if not using sanwa)
2. connect lipo to speedo
3. now open GUI on desk top and select com port and select read all then click connect.

Hey guys today i noticed that the first quarter inch of pull on my transmitter offers zero throttle in the car....is that an adjustment on the speedo to get the car to move the instant the throttle is touched or is that a function of my transmitter?

Sounds like the transmitter.

There is a small dead spot on mine as well, but certainly not 1/4 throttle.

Reset the throttle EPA's etc on your radio and then recalibrate the ESC.

P.S. Loving the new 3.5 firmware in boosted

hello
what are the differences on the new firmware 3.5 compared to 3.4b?
in 3.4b I did not like the brake, gave me no feeling, much better than the 3.4

where can I find the firmware 3.5? I have to ask Per ?

thank's
