Hello,
Thanks for your reply.
I would like that you confirm the information.
If I add the internal and external timing I will have the following timing, per motors with their original unit sensor.
1C105V3 Competition V3.0 1 Cell Motor - 10.5R. 12-15º minimum and 22-25º maximun.
138105V3 Competition V3.0 Brushless Motor - 10.5R. 12-15º minimum and 22-25º maximun.
SP000037 1/10 Competition MMM series 10.5R Brushless Motor. 23-26º minimum and 32-35º maximun.
Is that correct? Thanks.

I explain you. I'm writing the rules of a championship 1/10 Electric Touring Stock in Spain.
The first rule is. Any person could use any motor brand.
The second rule is. The addition the internal and external timing is 35º or 36º.
The second rule, I think isn´t the best rule for this category, but I haven't the commisary neither the technical necessary tools.
Please, Could you answer me previous question? Thanks.

New update for REVENTON ESC....there are no new firmware within but all the frimware were added the "upload protection" feature that it will provide a perfect upload without demaging the ESC internal software. That means it should not have anymore 99% upload and crashed....for those ESC that has software problem, this software should take care of it....give it a shot.
http://www.speedpassion.net/files/SP..._v1_1_0_21.zip
(1) Uninstall the REVENTON software via window's uninstall program
(2) Go to 'C:\Program Files\Speed Passion" and make sure to delete the folder SPEED PASSION.....(if the folder still exist there)
(3) Install the new program...
(4) Update the LCD card...without connecting the ESC. I see alot of people having trouble connecting the LCD firmware because they are connecting the ESC with the LCD while doing the card update, that will not work and will screw up the software.
(5) When updating the card (The new V2.6 version) then restart the computer and program and connect your REVENTON PRO with the LCD card (no fan connection and no LIPO please) and you should be able to do the firmware update...

Had a buddy with the Reventon R crap out on him on his first track run.
It worked fine initial testing and setting everything up, then after he hooked it up, nothing throttle wise.
We could reconfigure the radio, etc. and get steering. Tried the throttle channel on the receiver with a servo, worked fine. Tried another motor, nothing. Motor worked fine on my GT 2.0 Pro. could reset the ESC to the Radio and it did its beeps ,etc. Just no throttle output.
He has the wireless module as well, pretty cool stuff.
Anyway, what else do you guys suggest he try before sending it in when you have no throttle response?
So the Reventon Pro can work with a TQ Booster or a receiver pack? what settings do you need to do to get it to work?

I heard hobbyking booster and receiver pack works for sure, I also heard TQ booster does NOT work with Reventon Pro. I am just testing the Reventon R in my 1/12th scale and see what combination will work. I dont see why it wouldn't work with a Life pack unless the FET's and or drivers cannot run on a 1 cell lipo.

Yep, TAMAK heard correctly. I was able to run the Reventon 2s Pro in 12th mod several weeks ago using both a Lipo rx pack AND a HobbyKing booster. The important thing is that mine would NOT power up when I removed the red power wire from the esc harness. I instead HAD to leave the esc harness in tack. When I used the rx pack I had to turn the esc off via the rx pack switch. When I used the HobbyKing booster I could turn the esc on AND off via the Reventon Pro's integrated power button. I decided to configure that speedo with the HobbyKing booster. Howard is still testing it on his 2s Reventon Pro.

Thanks Dave! I confirmed tonight that a receiver pack will NOT work on the Reventon "R" with 1 cell lipo. I tried it with and w/o the red wire in the esc harness and no go. The only time it will worked in that configuration is with a 2 cell lipo. I also made sure the lipo cut off setting was disabled. But I feel if the esc will not operate with a lipo reciever pack, there is no way a booster is gonna make it better..

For now, if you run 1s Mod (and I'm thinking Blinky should work also) using either a 2s Lipo Rx or HobbyKing booster with the Reventon Pro you should be fine.

I having problem changing my setting using the LCD program card. I've updated the card to v2.6. Setting using PC is okay. But when I use the LCD it just displaying the 'Speed Passion Reventon' screen. Any thought on this matter?
12-10-2012, 09:02 AM
See version 2.5 (downgrade) on your LCD would work or not...I will give that a try myself tonight.
