The last big event i ran the below settings to finish 5th in the A-Main.
using the extreme stock esc.

No end bell timing
boost 50 (0.6 * 50 = 30 degrees)
Turbo 14 (0.6 * 14 = 8 degrees)
Start rpm 3000, increasing every 300 rpm
Turbo delay 0.1
FDR 5.44
99 degrees F day, motor temp 180 degrees F (outer case) after 6mins

I would like to achieve something similar using the Reventon, I like the SP esc's, they are way smoother than the Hobbywing, but I am struggling to balance speed and heat with the SP reventon esc.

So if hybrid boost active is a % of 30 degrees, that make sense.
But if the rpm on a 21.5t boosted motor is 24-30K then how is the hybrid boost of 150K related?

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.

It's normal?

3 drivers in my track with the same problem, different motor and radio.

It connects fine if I don't put it in safe mode and I can edit all the usual settings (ABS etc...). But in normal mode (not safe mode) the update firmware option doesn't shop any firmware available.

If I run it in safe mode it says it's connected but the red blobs at the bottom of the screen don't turn green. When I chose the firmware I want (Stock1) it goes to the update screen but then immediately fails. I get the message "Download failed, please reset the ESC". From this point on I can't do anything but reset the app.

I've tried everything and am all out of ideas.

I have just got a Reventon Pro 1 and want to run it in my spare car with 17.5T motor in boosted settings, but do not understand the SP settings. Like it or not HW & Tekin settings are a lot easier to understand, especially with regards to the hybrid boost start points . Anyone like to share their set up for a 17.5 boosted or even a 13.5T boosted please

V3-13.5t boosted in a Xray t4-13

Belltiming to max. = 10*
FDR: 5.9 (27/84)

HB delay: 0,2
HB-start: 4000
Slope: 18*/0.1

Our track is round about 40meter x 30meter:


Felling to less punch/turbo effect on the final line
Is there room for improvement on my setup..? :roll eyes:

I have no fan on the motor - maybe it will help

I'm not running a fan either and use this setup at every track.

Have you tried another motor/checked the V3 bearings, cleaned internals etc? Is your drive train running free?
