Anyone got a good 13.5t open esc setup that'll be a good starter for ten for a TC?

Yes, SP team driver and tech support would be at TITC and support any drivers at the event. :D

Got my new reventon pro in and had a chance to try it tonight in my TLR 22-4. I am using a non sensored 4300kv motor from G-force. Had to download the software to allow me to change the mod1 to mod0 so I can have reverse. There's a bunch of us that show up at the local track on Thursdays and there's no one to marshal the track when we're all on the stand, hence the need for reverse.

I am getting a TREMENDOUS amount of cogging. Never had this issue once with the old 60amp Hobbywing ESC. Also was able to go to 40% on braking,which works fine. I left the rest of the settings as is in the software.

Plan is to get a 6.5 sensored motor soon, poss before next week. I am pretty happy so far, just the cogging freaks me out. It's there for the first 10% of trigger travel. Getting it in both directions.

When are you going to update the team drivers? Lol SP website is a tad outdated.

Wor, never seen this case before..... Just called SP they say you can just solder the wire directly. But be careful do not short any of the wires. :)

I'm having trouble getting my Reventon program card to work with my new Reventon s ESC. I've plugged it into my computer and installed the drivers and program from the SP website but it still shows up as unknown device (windows 7). When I plug it into the computer the 4 lines give a faint flash and nothing happens. I tried plugging it into just the ESC with a battery and turned it on and all it will do is light up the two left dashes and won't do anything else. I tried to hold the reset button and plug it into the computer and still all I get is a faint flash from the 4 dashes and nothing happens. I work in IT and have tried this on two different computers. I'm wondering if I just got a bad box?

Please double check the wire connecting the programming box to you ESC is properly matched in terms of negative/positive/nuetral.

It is correct. Shouldn't it power up to the computer without the esc connected anyways?

Are the Red ring 12.5mm Rotors legal for ROAR Stock class racing? I have heard they are not because of this rule:


8.5.4.4.2 ROAR Spec Motors: External shaft diameter must be 0.125 inches (3.175mm). Only one piece, two pole Neodymium sintered, or Ferrite (Ceramic) magnetic rotors are permitted. The magnet length shall be 25.0 +/- 1.00mm not including any non-magnetic balancing material. The magnet outside diameter shall be a maximum of 12.51 mm, no tolerance, for the entire length of the magnet. The shaft outside diameter, where the magnet is mounted, shall be 7.25 +/- 0.150mm for the entire length of the magnet. This dimension must be measurable without destroying the rotor.
not sure so figured I would ask, and asked here too as there may be more visitors.

Is there a Speed Passion ESC that will work with a Losi SCTE running 2 cell lipo and a 4.5-5.5 turn motor?

Reventon PRO: 4.5R to 21.5R Motorturn

Hi, Need help on Combo sensor Speedpassion R ESC. Is there any way to reverse the rotation instead of reversing it via transmitter.

For info my current kit require changing of the motor position. Horizontal on the right hand side. Did reverse via transmitter but i need double tap in order to move forward after brake. (Forward/Reverse with brake mode).

TQ

I'm trying to start smoothly my Reventon PRO 1.1.
When you push throttle, at the begining, don't moves tires (reduced neutral range) but allways starts fast, seems impossible to see tires moving slowly.

Reventon PRO 1.1 is like this?

Sounds like your TX end points are not calibrated.
