ProGauge with all the functions will still be available as a separate purchase item. We just wanted to find a way to help save everyone a little money.


I thought the price of the combos was already good :lol:
Im glad i bought it with all the features as handy... the battery check feature should be added with the cheaper version.

I was in profile 5 and had only ran for about 2 min, the system worked great all night going in and changing settings and all that turned off and on good i think it just got hung up for some reason, i am running a SCTE geared at 40/15 temps after our 8 min A main motor was 139 DEG. and the ECS was 103 DEG.

If the temps were low and it cut off, it hit voltage cut off, due to a spike for some reason. Look at settings, try and lower punch a couple of points and see if that helps resolve it, because of less current to pass through the system.

Hey nick. Im running the vtx10r be and a 7.5 in my scr and geared at 17/82. Still running hot any ideas. Drive train is as free as it gets and i turned down the timing in the motor.

You need to run a bigger spur gear.

bds81175 05-26-2013 09:40 AM

You aren't boosting are you?

eper 05-26-2013 12:09 PM

No boost

nikos2002 05-26-2013 01:14 PM

Thinking you need a bigger spur like 86 - or turn the Forward Power down on the esc.

bigbadbasher 05-26-2013 03:12 PM

I just traded my buddy for a brand new Losi TEN SCTE Rolling Chassis and a brand new Viper VX4R.45..

What are you guys getting good results with as far as gearing with the VX4R .45? I know it's probably been posted in this thread but i don't want to sift through over 500 pages to find it lol..

Also want the Viper guys to know that i am very impressed with this system. We had it on the track yesterday and we was impressed. So impressed that i ordered the VTX8 today to try out.. It looks promising to..

eper 05-26-2013 04:42 PM

Kyosho doesnt have a 86 and i feel like i have ajust enough motor if i turn down forward power im going to feel down on power
