Run the blinky profile on that ESC. Timing on the D3.5 will depend on your track, driving style, and motor temperatures. Start low on timing to be safe then work your way up combining gearing and timing.

There is a tab on the Speed Passion website that will allow you to see all the Reventon specs.

DRRS in stock 17.5 can range from 5-9. It really is a personal preference with no definitive answer.

From what we have seen it's minimal in offroad.

A couple of questions about the bluetooth module. Is it supposed to be mounted in the car? If so, do you connect it with a Y-cable? If you have to plug it in every time you want to make an adjustment, I don't see the advantage of using it with your cell phone, versus using it with the LCD programming card.

Consider it an option. Yes it needs to be plugged in to the ESC when you want to make a change. One advantage is you don't need a laptop with you to make setting and firmware changes.

ok, got a problem with the Reventon Pro. This is a buddys. It wont work now after a failed update. It just turns on then shuts off right away with just a yellow light. Any fixes?

The esc was new out of the box and I installed it like I have my other two reventon pros. Everything worked fine. Calibrated it and test run. Updated his firmware to 2.6 on the box and as I went to update the esc to mod2 software it failed shortly after the update and now the esc wont work.

BTW: this was using V1.1.0.21

What software do you recommend with a 13.5 motor on a fairly tight indoor clay track for a mod truck class?

Is there a list of what the different software versions are designed/best for? (vehicle, track conditions, motor, etc.)

Thanks for the response, but I forgot to tell you that I don't have the newest SC. I have a GT2.0 LPF which has several stock and mod options for software.

Stock 323 software is super smooth and perfect for mod.
