Solara, I was watching F1 last night and saw a Reventon in the parking lot and it linked a thought...
Will the Reventon be TCS/ROAR legal? Reason I am asking is, what is to stop someone from having a friend/family member/"pitcrew" change settings mid-race(while the driver is concentrating on the race? (example, I need more boost later in the race, or I need to conserve power or I can change timing because my esc temps are much lower than expected)

I don't think you understand my question.... Say I load blinky, get inspected, place on grid, somone else (friend/ family member) WIRELESSLY changes the software to boosted software as I/right before race, changing parameters as I race to give me the advantage. When race is done, change software back .

Is the GT V2.1 EX Brushless ESC - Carbon black suitable for off road my best choice for a b44.1 mod. running an LRP x12 6.5T. And do I also need to buy the fan and lcd pro card to hook it up to my laptop. Is there any other leads or parts I'll need to buy that don't come with it.
If your B44.1 does have the room for the heat sink and the fan...yes, definitely the GT2 PRO (instead of the GT2.1 EX) simply because you can mount the fan on it (fan came with the PRO 2.0 but not the GT2.1 EX)...
You also need to purchase the LCD programmer box if you want to change software and such....the LCD can also change the ESC parameter setting without using the computer. With the 2 digital LCD line of reading it is a very handy piece of hardware to own.....
You won't go wrong on that...and we have some 4WD off road setup for the GT2 PRO....1st runner up of the WC and mutliple European Championship titles.

Ok.....I was told the new batch of REVENTON ESC (Version S and R, and possible Stock Club Race) are leaving the factory and we might have them instock in 10 days....of course, I will let everyone know here once I have a firm confirmation from the shipping company. So...stay tune.
I was trying to wait until we have the REVENTON ESC instock and post some more information about the WIRELESS technology...but I think I have to address these concern now since someone already thought of that and wondering HOW to "tech" someone was running blinky class and right after the tech, his "teammate" can wirelessly upload the BOOST software with very little timing added and try to CHEAT.
(1) That is NOT possible. The reason we created the 2 wirelss modules (bluetooth module for Android unit and WiFi module for Apple unit) is exactly this reason. When all the car using our REVENTON ESC, this wireless module unit CANNOT BE MOUNTED onto the car. These module are pretty good size and they are very easy to spot. When the tech saw this module on the car, EVEN THEY ARE NOT CONNECTED....should have the driver to remove it immediately or they will be DQ.

(2) Without these module connected to the ESC or on board on the car, the ESC itself (no matter which version of REVENTON) will not be able to adjust (not even 1 single option) wirelessly or with wire....NOTHING can be done.
(3) This wireless technology is very easy to be built within the ESC, but because there is the chance of cheating, we have to have them removed from the ESC and to create something that is "NON-SMALL" in order for the tech to SPOT it out from looking at it. It can be as small as the new small personal transponder but we want it to be big so there will be no easy way to hide it.
(4) TCS legal..........talk to FRED. I don't want to spend more time because someone just has problem with mfr like us.
(5) ROAR already received these unit and they are working on getting them approve.........because of the new blinky software (we called it STOCK0) and there will be the new BOOST version (STOCK1) coming later this summer.
(6) So far we have stock0 (blinky....waiting for ROAR to approve) and Mod0, Mod1 (version 0 without reverse, mod1 with - for drifting). Mod2 with BOOST coming after the WC.
I hope this explain to you guys about the wireless technology and please do ask question here and I will try to answer them.
The past weekend I was using my Reventon Stock Club Race ESC, with the bluetooth module and doing some demo with my HTC Sensation smart phone...having that adjust the ESC with the phone wirelessly in less then 30 sec is just awesome.

30 seconds or not is not the point....the idea is, we are NOT going to make anyone has the chance to alter the software version on the ESC before and after tech. Either it is by the driver on the driver stands or 100 feet from the track remote control the setup. Not possible....
