The Speed Passion Thread
On the previous page I posted how there is no help here,and now the next page is full of help and advice...
Is that what it takes?...really?
OK,you can help me.
I bought three reventon pros and was led to believe the software/firmware was FULLY developed.
Now I'm not being nasty,or threatening in any way,or calling you names etc,but answer me this honestly.
Did Speedpassion release this ESC with software/firmware in its production stage to consumers too early,just to beat Muchmores Fleta 4 team of software engineers?
And why not wait until you got all the bugs out of YOUR firmware first,so that upgrades would take effect and not blow up processors?
And yes,I work with this stuff....a lot.
Answer me that.

But thanks for adding the part about disconnecting the battery when connecting the esc to the computer.

I bought a 3racing F113 combo(with the speed passion reventon R esc and 17.5R motor)and got around to running today. I'm using a spektrum Dx2 radio and set it up per manual. Took it out for a test drive and zero braking. Then tried a few other radio set ups I have and still NO brakes. Did I get a defective unit? Or am I possibly missing something? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Just installed an Revention Pro/Novak Ballistic 21.5, all said and done link the Radio etc... pull the throttle and just get a squink sound, actually tries to run backward first then tries to go forward, was able to run the car for a miniute or two, but when I came to a stop same Squink and no go.
Tried timing low and high, same thing... anyone have an Idea? Used the box to setup speedo, all checks out, latest firmware etc.. Whaats going on?

As i wrote i had the same problem. As i now tryed to start the program as administrator it worked flawless. So try that 
I updated the esc with stock1. The programbox with 2.7. At the track i had the problem my esc didnt do anything anymore. So make sure u test it. The esc didnt want to start up anymore. After putting the 2.4firmware into the programbox it worked fine again. All setting also the hybribboost work great.
This esc is a monster !
