Come on people, it's not like I'm trying to be a noob here. A dear friend of mine is speed passion dealer in this country and we've already worked on and tested but no luck here. FYI, I'm running SMC 6000mah battery and running Futaba BLS551, which all ran flawlessly with other speedies. If I had to try all of those new things, I might simply get an LRP speedy and forget the whole problem, although I have like 4~5 SP speedies and dozens of motors.

I've only every run the 528_Stock SW with motors ranging from 10.5 to 21.5, but one thing came to mind to try: Increase the neutral width setting to see if there is a sensitivity to the radio/esc combination being used.

13.5?

I have a GT2.0 Pro and running a V3.0 13.5. Everything was running fine and now I turn it on and only get about 1/4 throttle and the green light is flashing on the speedo. I tried a new sensor board, new sensor wire and same thing happens. Put an 8.5 in and it works fine...this same thing happened with two different 13.5's and two different esc's. Any ideas? Running the 528 software...

My friend had a very similar problem. Turned out the battery plug could not handle the current. Try another plug on the esc end.

You really need to try a friends battery as well to make sure yours isn't the problem either.

When you run super powerful motors your battery must be strong enough to hanle the current.

I have in the past, ran a race, pulled my car, went back out for the next heat and the servo be crap, don't discount it, it may have a bind and have a high current draw when operating. pull the lead from the rcvr and see what happens, its free and easy, worth a try.
