Yes...that is the one, download that blue little arrow box and install the software, then choose your software within the program that you are planning to use on your vehicle.

Performance is a hugh jump from 1.1 to 2.0
Then the 2.0 has mutliple software to choose from, especailly running stock class...version 1.1 is not update/upgradable.

correction Speedpassion version 1.0 is the one that is not update/upgradable,
but Speedpassion version 1.1 is update/upgradable.

Speedpassion GT2.0 Got Lot's more Power abilities Inside compare to GT1.xx.

The Huge Problem is Speedpassion version 1.xx can use Brushed Motor
but Speedpassion 2.0 cannot use Brushed Motor.

I have a trakpower 5400 gold lipo battery and a trakpower 5000 dark series lipo which is brand new

I feel a power loss after 20 minutes or more of running then I STOP but then what if I kept going after that power loss. by power loss I mean im drifting and then the motor just slows down and I know its lipo cut off

If you are running for that long and experiencing power drop off towards the end of your run, that is just the battery dyeing. Li-Po cut off stops the car completely and doesn't allow any power to your ESC/Motor. Hence, your car will stop, dead.

If your ESC is not cutting off like this before the battery is dyeing, you should probably think about increasing the Value of the Li-Po Cutoff on your ESC. The battery should only have a slightly noticeable drop in performance until the Li-Po cutoff kicks in. I run 2.8v Per Cell on the GT 2.0 Pro.

Hope this helps,

Ryan.

I might be wrong, but I think I read before that the SP2.0 has a 'soft' Lipo cutoff, meaning that the car does not shut down completely, but slows to a crawl so that you can bring your car in, safer than a shut down on the straight.

Perhaps this is what you experience, however I may be wrong.

Regards

Neal

Thats correct the lipo cutoff doesnt cut off completely like the older versions but now makes the car slows down a lot but still mobile.
If you hitting the cutoff drifting after 20 mins then id suggest you look at the settings and the setup on the car for any hassles.
I can drift for 50 - 60 mins with a Thunderpower 40c 5000mah and a 11.5 brushless motor with a 13mm rotor.
I run with the cutoff at 3.2v.
You also notice a drop off in performance when the battery is in the 3.4 - 3.6v region.
