Is the Viper 1/8th ESC going to be 6S capable? And when is it going to be released?

I know its been asked before, and I did search the thread but what is the differences between the VTX10 and VTX10R? I was going to try a Tekin but leaning more towards the Viper now since it is available with the Pro Gauge meaning I would not have to buy the Hot Wire.

All I have ever used has been LRP ESCs

Thanks

I have the 10r and am having some heating issues, is there a certain profile that you guys are using with the sc 4x4's to make sure it doesnt thermal and shut down? My set up is:
lrp x12L 4.5 that never temps more than 175. 12t pinion on 62 tooth spur. the esc is like 180-190 on the case when i get it back in the pits and temp. I think shut down is like 220 internal on these. Is that normal. What have you guys been getting temp wise?
thanks JT

I had my ESC on profile 4 for boosted 17.5

I was playing with setting due to low traction. How do I go back to full factory 17.5 boost settings?



Anyone have a good powerful 17.5 setup as well for 2wd medium traction buggy? Need it to be real smooth but scream on top more some long straights and large jumps.

Thanks

The 10r has twice as many FET's and no motor limit, The 10 has a 6.5 limit, All funtions and adjustment are the same between the two.

Id be very interested in a good 17.5 setup for 2wd offroad buggies as well. I am getting closer to one but not quite there yet.

Did some testing today with my 10R in my SCT, had a bit of an issue... Motor is a 550 Trinity D3 Monster 4.5t... My issue was I can't seem to hit full throttle with out it cutting out.. There is a long back straight I was feeding it slow to top speed then when it got to full throttle it would cut out, any ideas? My guess is it has something to do with the Throttle PW frequency that I set at 2000mhz but just realized now I should have changed it back... Oh and the esc was at about 140-150 and the motor was 120-130.. My esc's in the past have never gotten that warm...?:confused: Also running a 2s battery!! Profile #1 Spec offroad/no boost

let me guess its either in an AE sc104x or a scte

either or.. are you boosting or adding timing to the motor at all? what profile is the esc in? i dont get why people have to run 4.5 motors in these big trucks the 5.5 dose it just as well if not better and more efficient. and the 6.5 is EVEN better on smaller tracks. ;)

So is this a recommendation to use a slower motor here for an esc that is rated with no limit? NO timing, NO boost (profile: off road no boost) 80% on the EPA. My Kinetic was running about 50-60 deg. cooler than this. I think there is a problem greater than the motor turn. I have spoken to a few and there is no comparison in temps... this should not be thermally shutting down.
thanks, JT
