Again....Reventon has nothing to do with Hobbywing or Orion or Yokomo or 3-4 other different rebatch ESC. But we will consider to add that onto the stock0. We did not change anything on stock0 except we found out there are some minor cogging on the stock0 at launching if your motor's timing is set higher then 35*.....we will address that problem and hope we can update the problem without resubmitting the software to ROAR again. If we do have the update and if ROAR need us to resubmitt, it will take some time....

I just bought a new SP Ver.3 motor 17.5T, hooked it up to my SP Rev Pro but no throttle (motor not turning). Try to calibrate the ESC after firmware v22 updated, no beep sound in the ESC, but the orange led blinks. I can feel the motor staggering but no turns. Any advice on this?

I would guess it should be some time MARCH. Because we just done some indoor carpet testing with the current 2012 Paved On Road National TQ and Champ Dave Arnold and saying the STOCK1 and MOD2 software works excellently and it was one of the best feeling 1S supported ESC. Along with the Speed Passion V3 3.5 motor that he was using.
The new EX will be 1-2 cells supported, so, if you are planning to run 12th scale, Oval and even TC....look for the new EX.

There are different between the PRO and the R internally and we just cannot drop in the power from the PRO to the R just like that. I wish we could, but the R has its own limit.

You need to adjust your braking from the card, just can't use default setting and expect it to the best....we have to set the default to LOW so you can adjust per your liking.

Anyone else find the new software for the Reventon Pro a little odd?, I was using Stock0 last night during racing with the older firmware, still noticing the brakes were very weak, so today I flashed the new ware onto it.
First things I noticed was it felt like there is more brakes there now, but then I also noticed it's now cogging badly at low throttle, so I'd be curious to see if anyone else has found this?

We will get this figured out...

The 2nd wire that customer need to cut off is the TEMPERATURE READING signal to the ESC. Since REVENTON ESC does not have motor temp reading, so you can cut that wire off and it will be effect a thing on the ESC and motor performance.
We will have this addressed in the future.

Just tried my brand new Reventon Pro tonight at a club meet, I'm getting the EXACT same problem. Happens after a 6min race, ESC temp was 42 degrees (c) and when you turn it back on it starts repeatedly beeping with no throttle response.
I'm running the Stock0 blinky firmware that I downloaded to it from the latest software release, I'm wondering if that's something to do with it as a mate at the track has one and he didn't update and doesn't have that problem.
Lipo cutoff is off but when I change to a fresh pack the speedy operates fine so I'm confused as hell. I'm running 21.5 blinky and it doesn't use more than 3000mAh of a 6600mAh pack so I find it hard to believe it something battery related.
Couldn't find a reply to TransAm's question, is anyone else getting this problem too?
edit: i found some replies saying its incompatibility with some motors which imo is shit! I'm using a LRP x12 21.5 I'm going to order a SP 21.5 to test this theory (need a spare motor anyway).

I am sorry....yes, LRP motor does have temperature sensor, you just need to cut off the 2nd wire on your sensor wire and that should work fine. It will NOT effect and performance what so ever, on ESC and on MOTOR.
