I had a friend of mine buy the 4.5 550 and the VTX10R for his losi 4wd sc truck. He said it runs hot. 180/190 He has a 13t pinion on it. Anyone run this truck and esc combo that can help me with setup?


Thanks

I would verify you don't have a shorted motor or other issue. If it was working properly and you just moved it from one vehicle to another, it should be fine.

If there is still an issue call Viper at (866) 206-8558 for tech support.

I saw it was taken down why is that? I think it was the viperrcsolutions channel
The video was of the calibration method used prior than the A30 firmware that came out in December for all of the VTX series esc's. The calibration method is different from the A19 and older firmware.

I had the same exact thing happen to me with a brand new system...the esc never got warm, but was only turned on once and it made the normal beeps...went to grab my radio to start the calibration and the esc was off....now no matter what i do, i cant get it to turn on....i sent it back to viper....we will see what they say.... Its not my first viper system or rodeo for that matter...so i know i didnt mess anytging up

Viper website says vtx1 is 1-2s. Other than that are they the same?
