So beings novice driver I probably don't need hybrid or turbo boosts. Just want to make sure that the updating the esc won't fubar its performance. If you feel like ditching the Wifi let me know, it would make firmware updates easier for me as I'm a Mac guy.
Both of you should have read the specifications on the Speed Passion website or asked on here before buying the Reventon S esc's. They do not support Hybrid boost or any turbo functions. They are more suited to blinky classes. Only the Pro and R support Hybrid boost settings. The Wifi module is a good idea but I feel its more of a gimmicky thing really. I bought one but have never used it so far. The LCD box is just as easy to plug in and change settings with. Also, the Hybrid boost profiles are in the final stages of testing for 10.5-21.5 and are due to be released very soon according to SP.

Has anyone succesfully run hybrid boost with a low turn motor - around 4.5T?
It ran great with a 6.5 with motor temps and esc temps around 60 deg c. But when i ran a 4.5T and 4T it would cog and was like hitting an invisible brick wall down the back straight and boost/turbo wouldnt kick in. Motor and esc temps got very hot!
running latest available software.
help please! I have a very big race coming up and would really like to run this esc
Thanks!

yup for the nats.
i hope a firmware update will fix my problem or if no one else has an issue, maybe it's just me and my usual luck with electronics.
I was running very conservative settings too:
Dualsky Z5 4.0
Lowest end bell timing 7*
DRRS 4
Hybrid 30%
150K
start 8000rpm
0.2 delay
FDR 8.8

Hi,
Is there any reset or similar on Reventon R's LED-programg card? I was updating firmware again to 1.3 and sw installation froze about 18%. Now I don't have any leds on it and I can't update card's firmware with Reventon sw.
This same card might have something wrong because I have updated it several times but never managed to modify esc's settings without PC. It still works with PC, but none of leds aren't on. The card is black version which came with the first patch of Reventon R
