R/C Tech Forums - Viper RC -

lower throttle punch, raise throttle frequency, add some negative throttle curving, lower start rpm and raise end rpm if you boosting, and also if you are boosting, lower slew. =] Make sure you are geared right.

jwg191 - where are you plugging the fan and cap board into on the receiver? Have you tried with without either one of those items -- especially since you probably did use them on the other truck.

Just asking, but is the lipo full? Did you try another battery and try calibrating again?

The battery was full. It was all my fault not the product. I had to remove the stock caps to make room for the fan. But I put the 4x module on so there where caps. on it but not the stock ones. I was told that I need to keep the two caps on the esc. So there is no problem just operator error. How do you have the fan installed? When I got mine the fan sat under the bracket. If I put the fan on top of the bracket it will clear the caps. I can leave the fan under the bracket but will not completly cover the esc.:)

I plug the fan into the plug in the back of the esc by the sensor plug and hard wired the caps to the positive and negitive side of the esc. I made the mistake on not leaving the stock caps that come with the esc. That was the problem. The 4x module is not a replacement for the two caps that come on the esc.
