I have the Reventon Stock Club ESC with a Savox 1251 and a 17.5 and didn't have any brown out issues. No guarantees as it was my first day with this combo but I have not any any brown out issues with any SP ESC with a Savox.

Great ESC too, comes ready out of the box, wires on, Dean's connector on, fan mounted, ready to rock.

Update ESC firmware to "Stock1 V19-58b7 - for Reventon R" by using Reventon PC interface V1.1.0.22. Adjust setting "Hybrid Boost Power" and "Hybrid Boost Maximum". Ensure ESC and Motor have connected sensor cable.

Hey guys, need help with a starting setup and FDR for a Reventon Pro in 21.5T boosted. Going to try this class again, last time I blew two motors trying to get a fast setup so don't want to repeat that mistake

Thanks

1-1
2-3
3-8
4-8
5-1
6-3
7-1

Start at 4.0 FDR and 30-ish degrees of timing and add teeth and timing as necessary.

I have programmed my Reventon R to do forward/reverse. However I have a problem with it: It won't always do reverse. I pull back many times on the transmitter but nothing happens. It seems to do reverse sometimes but not always.

The strange thing is that the brake function always works fine, so there is nothing wrong with the signal...

May I know what booster you use..? I would LOVE to know that...cause I have this question asked so many times and I have no solution, until now...

When was your REVENTON S or R purchased..? I want to know too...

I will tell you exacly what it made me.
For the first 30 seconds the speed work in full throttle.after that when i keep the trhottle in 1/4 for 1 sec(entering a corner) and give all the thortle exiting the corner the car goes with 1/4 of thorthe.I dont have full thortle.When i leave and give again full thortle gives me 3/4.I work it like a nitro with playing all the time with trhottle to work.
I play
Drag Brake Force 15%
Low Voltage Cut-Off 3,4v/cell
"DDRS" Start Mode level 3
Maximum Reverse Force 50%
Initial Brake Force 0%
Neutral Range 6%(Narrow)
Turbo Open Time 12 deg/0.1sec
Boost Start RPM 9000rpm
Turbo Open Delay 0.2 sec
acc 750
I think you are running SENSORLESS mode after the full throttle....when you are running sensorless, you no timing, no boost..that explained the slow throttle with no top speed or boost...

It is sensor problem....either your sensor cable, or the sensor board inside the motor is bad....the last thing, the sensor port of the ESC is bad. Check all 3 items...

It is a R and used a old Novak Smartboost that I got 2nd hand. I also used a LiFe rx pack with it and it worked. It was paired with a Reedy Sonic 13.5. Everything worked as any 1s has worked for me in the past.

I bought it from the SP website on Oct. 12. At the time I used the firmware that it came with and have since loaded the stock0 firmware for my TC.

I know I didn't dream this and the only reason I switched the esc is I had a LRP SXX laying around and it made my chassis cleaner without all the extra wires and battery. When I can I will switch it back and see if it still works with the new firmware.

Maybe re-calibration will solve the problem.

Finally got the Reventon S going in my buggy last night and the Wifi module working today. Very smooth control and the Wifi module is the cats a$$! I see that there isn't a 'hybrid boost' setting with the S model. Are there any future plans to incorporate this setting into the S model?
