Basically the stock case would be offered with a carbon bottom and blue/black plastic top, and matching low profile heatsink. If you want different colours, then there would be options for alloy upper cases (a la xtreme stock) and heatsinks in a variety of colours. With a carbon lower case, almost doesn't matter what colour is brought... personally I think it's a great idea to help best match peoples cars and colours.

Red, orange, green, silver... whatever you want :batman:

Hi Guys

I have attached the original photos of one of two prototypes the first proto is being track tested in China as we speak .

It does have it's decals and graphics missing but like i have said in the past the unit is smarter,smaller,new software plus a soft switch with build in led's including a new style heatsink for all axis airflow plus the new programming method that doesn't violate any patents of any brand;););) .

I have no confirmed date of release but im sure it wll be soon as all the work is now complete just need to get into mass production now .

Hobbywing is very serious and committed to bringing its customers the best of the best .Management would like to apologise for the time it has taken but we wanted the new v3 to be the best for our customers .Alot of you might have though why did we do all the work for other oem customers but not our own but to be honest behind the scenes there was alot going on with our design team that no one knew about and that i could not talk about but i always knew the V3 was always destined only for the Hobbywing brand .

thank you for your patients.

regards Angelo

After reading your reply to this angelo i am very confused....
I thought that the turbo on the 211 software only activated after the boost rpm was achieved and all the boost was used up. eg; if you had 30 steps of boost timing and a 3000 rpm start with acc at 500 the turbo wouldn't cut in until the revs hit 18000 rpm????..
With a data logger in my car i discovered that with a delay on the turbo the car would complete its boost then delay before activating the turbo.

Love the integrated power switch. I would like an alternative to keep pulling out the plug from the receiver to change the settings though.
Looks great. Look forward to owning one:nod:

So we are all clear will the new software be backwards compatible to V2.1 speedies:D

You dont ever need to remove the plug from the receiver again as the new programming method is no longer through the rx port .the front 3 pins you see on the esc is the port for programming and a lead will be supplied so all you do is plug your lcd programmer to the esc via this cable .

Angelo, great job on the V3, looking good!

Would like to know if its feasible for the program box/software to store 2/more different firmwares so as to do away with the need to re-flash the ESC (with the computer) every time we want to change from Stock FW to 0 timing FW?
