Going to try a reventon R with a 10.5 in buggy. they look pretty sweet and are small.

That will be a great combo. You will want to gear it about 24/78 .

Sounds like a sensor board issue to me.

That is what it is looking like to me as well but it also seems quite strange that the same motor hooked up to a Novak ESC shows no issues.

I had just switched out a esc in my sc truck and put my sp gt 2.1 in and sure enough. On Friday I practiced all day with it and it was a no go on Saturday. Blinkin lights. Amber and red I believe. So I switched cables and the the rotor and still wouldn't work. It was a ballistic 7.5 but I believe it was a sensor board also I believe. Put in a different
motor and worked fine.

Well, my Reventon Pro is finally installed. Now only if I can get the pc interface to work. I'm no computer guy by any means...

I am seeing that the Speed Passion GT2.0 Pro's are in stock for USA, but the shipping is like $100? :confused:

You sure you are on the USA warehouse site? Just checking.

I ran the new Revention R in my TRF201 17.5 for about 10 runs and it worked flawlessly. :)

You have to actually put your address in for it to recalculate the shipping. Should only be about $7 or something for shipping.

Raul, from what I can tell some people seem to be having problems with the .15 reventon pc software, so you might want to hold off in that update and stick to the .14. Other than that I find the of software as well as the program box to be very straight forward and simple. It is a good idea to make sure your led box is updated to the newest version which I believe is 1.3. If you plug in your led box to the computer and while holding the reset button on the led box while you run the reventon pc software, to the left after it loads will show you the option to update the led firmware.

Going through the main north america site (not the warehouse as its not there), shipping after you select the USA buy now option and select USA, its like $17 shipping.

The issue I saw with reventon software version .15 was the fact that if you update the programmer firmware with it, the LED's will no longer work. Other than, talking to the ESC and setting values from the PC was flawless. Updating the programmer to 1.3 in version .12 fixed the LED issue and I can still set the ESC with the .15 release.

Hi guys, using my SA V2 here at the Clash for the first time...everything running well so far but am getting some confusing lights on the esc. When I stop at the end of the run it flashes green/yellow quickly and constantly. It still works ok but I can't find anything in the manual to say what those flashes mean...it does not do it at initial turn on....can anyone help?! Are the flashes a warning of some kind?

I can't fully understand which ESC you are running, but a blinking green indicates the ESC is getting too hot.

"Over-Heat Protection: If the function is activated, the output power will be cut-off when the temperature of
the ESC or the internal temperature of the sensored brushless motor is higher than a factory-preset value for 5
seconds. When the protection happens, the Green LED will flash.
When the ESC is over-heat: The Green LED flashes as “-,-,-”.
When the motor is over-heat: The Green LED flashes as “--,--,--”."

Edit...do you mean Silver Arrow V2?
