Rick Jenkins
New track record in track today with my Viper powered T4.1, VTX10R-BE and 6.5

Can you guys explain "punch "to me?
Profile 1&2 are the same excepts one is 60% punch and one is 100%

Trying to figure which one will be better for my wheeler with a 7.5

Punch has to do with how much power is going to the motor at the initial hit of the throttle. With a 4 wheeler you could probably run 100% and be ok. May have to go down a bit, but I'd start with 100.

Some have been posting that they are having problems using the ProGauge. I made a video showing how you use it. Sometimes seeing a video is better than trying to read the instructions.

+ YouTube Video

Very nice video...my only comment would be at the end when you got it out of program mode and back to run mode and then shut down. Makes it seem like you have to shut down. You could have just said and now you're ready to run after putting it back into run mode.

I know. I was torn about that. I said it that because I saw Nick post that it is a good idea to do. It can't hurt to shut down, but you are right.

Yup.

Are the new 1/8 escs in stock yet?

Any team drivers have any run time on one yet?

Yes they are in stock. I will be getting one for my SC8e, but that will be for the summer time.

They look very well built. I'm definitely going to order one just to try it out. I haven't ran a single viper product yet so I'm looking forward to giving this esc a shot.

lololol, my button never works as well as yours. I have to try 4-5 times to get it into program mode and I do the exact same steps as you. It comes out of program mode ok, but also does not always shut down. I can press mine for 5 Mississippi and it just goes into program mode, lol.

I am so happy that upgraded to Viper. I love everything about it.

If you know what you are doing, I know you will come to love the viper line of products.
there is no better feeling then knowing you can change your set up trackside!!! the pro-gauge makes adjustments on the spot a cinch!
i love viper products, and their staff that stands behind them!

Yes they are in, I'll be picking up one in 3-4 weeks to install in the new tekno sct and will do some testing with it and report back here.

Mine will be here by the weekend.
