Default issues need help

I just got my 80 amp xerun in the mail, installed it and I don't have reverse. I went through and checked the programming and it is setup right. Any ideas?

Yes Download that 1.64 version and see if it helps. Also if you are running Vista or Windows 7 try installing by right clicking the .exe file and choose run as administrator

Go it. Now at 1.64 and no update available beyond that I see. I didn't have WinRar installed so that was a bit tricky but downloaded that and was able to extract the .exe file from there. Using Win7pro 64bit and didn't have to do the admin trick either. Thanks amigo.

Did you calibrate the esc to your radio with the setup button on the switch? Thats my guess! Set radio to rev, hold that button and turn on switch, let off button and leave radio in neutral, press button once, pull full forward and press again, then go full reverse and press one more time.

I'll give that a try. Weird thing I forgot to mention is it has a third setting for crawl mode, and reverse works fine in that mode.

Thanks!
