rev = 0
brake = 75
neutral = 10
blfw
throt = 5
volt = 0
push = 0
timing = 100
current = off
OK, everything is set. Did you have any issues when you first installed your RS?

Maybe its just me, but I can't figure out how to change to sensored only mode on the speed control. Anyone have any advice?

Are you using Hotwire? Check white box on right hand side seen here in this screen shot from mo's 4wd setup.

I just realised that hotwire was reading it as an R1 instead of an RS. I reinstalled hotwire, and all is good. Thanks for the help.

Drag brake is a small amount of brake when you let off the throttle, but don't apply the brakes, to try to get a brushless to feel and act like a brushed motor. Push control is adding a little bit of throttle when letting off the throttle (trigger at neutral) to add some powered roll through the turns. You can only use one or the other, since they would fight each other.

Without either, the motor would just coast without slowing the motor. One thing that brushless doesn't need is push control, since most brushless motors have almost zero drag brake naturally. Push control is generally used on brushed motors, drag brake on brushless.

Hi Randy,

Any updates on the software?

Make sure that once you plug in the Hotwire(no speedo) go ahead and click on "check for updates."

Make sure you're running the latest software. The current one can find conflicts in certain network settings and come to the conclusion that there's no interent.

I'll post something when the new Hotwire software is out.

The R1 is a great sensorless esc. You really can't beat it's size, user interface(right on the unit with full led sequence) as well as it's ability to be updated with any new release software. Running any of the Redline sensorless motors is a very potent combination.

We're working on the Hotwire software update as we speak. We insist on it being rigth so bear with us.

As mentioned the R1 is good with sensorless motors.


It will also run sensored motors but there are some issues when you start to use sensored motors which are not of the mod variety. IE anything with a 10.5 or more winds starts to have weird stuff happening.

There is also a minor launch delay when using mod sensored motors.

One thing to however watch out for is that unfortunately the Tekin Sensorless motors are not Roar legal (i think also not legal in most of Europe, i dont think it was EFRA legal).
The Redline Sensored motors are however roar legal

The Hotwire is due for another update soon. Some new features will be added.

(I'm sorry you had to use your very first post to take a shot at us)

Bummer....
no shot
Keep working at it.
