They should be good to go out of the box.

If you want the most current firmware and support then doing the updates is recommended. Also remember if you are connecting to your PC/computer for programming the car battery should NOT be plugged in.

Hi, I've submitted a motor through the RMA process on the speedpassion website. I'm about to submit another one for an ESC. Is there a section on the website that allows for tracking the RMA process?

Thanks!

No place to track it make sure ram number is on the package and box

A

Cap: 7-8g
Switch: 5g

How are the Reveton Pros holding up? Many failures I'm looking into running one as back when I ran 1/8 I loved there silver arrow 2.0, and was very smooth

Some great racing by Speed Passion drivers running the Reventons and MMM mod motors at the European Offroad Series...EOS.

Thank you for taking the time to post these. Much appreciated, Cheers! :)

my buggy is lacking in top end a little bit. I have b4.1 wc with the gt2.0 lpf with a rev tech 8.5. timing on the motor is 2 notches from full. geared at 25/78. drrs is set at 3 and dmts is set at 6. everything feels great just seems too top out too early. any ideas what i can try different?

Can anyone answer this for me?

[QUOTE=vr6cj;11642086]This doesnt work at all. The esc is bricked basically after a "Failed update." The reventon software nor the reventon lcd recongize "see" the esc. Once you plug up a battery to the esc and turn it on, it'll just have a solid yellow light. It will turn off once you hook it up to a lcd programmer or reciever. It'll actully make a low toned beep once you do this too.

I've tried everything to get it to work that I can think off. Re-installed the latest software on two different pc's and a netbook. Everything works fine but the esc. Now mind you I own two other reventon pros and they work fine and update fine..

Which setup have you guys found to be the smothest throttle setting for the revention

thanks

With the appropriate software, assuming you are talking about the metal version that looks like the hobbywing card, I have heard the following, however, this is not a confirmation, you would need to do it on your own:

- Flashed with the right software, it may be compatible with hobbywing stuff
- Flashed with the right sofware, it may be compatible as far as hooking up to a PC with orion stuff

NOTE: this is from what I have heard. You are own your own as far as trying it and any issues you may encounter nor is it endorsed by Speed Passion, etc.

As a side note in reverse based on my personal experiences, I flashed the hobbywing card with the right software, I use it with my SP GT2.X and Silver arrow gear with no issues. I actually like the card better than the newer ones as it feels more robust.


Did some running with my SP gear. I got a GT2.1 Pro Stock in a 2wd B4.1 buggy with an 8.5 V3.0 competition motor. It felt very smooth, though, about midway through the run it wasn't quite as punchy as it was before. Its possible it was the battery or maybe the slipper and diff settings seating a bit more. But temps were great, heck motor was almost cool to the touch and the ESC didn't miss a beat. very smooth.

I also ran my Silver Arrow V2 (thanks MattP!) in my Tekno EB48 for a few runs before the spur gear went caput, man, talk about power and punch. highly impressed. It just fits inside the Tekno chassis with a slight mod to the mud guard.

I hope the new Reventon 8 or whatever its called takes a hard look at what the new Viper ESC looks like and mirrors it as far as how the wires come in to the speed control. Better yet, have EVERY wire as something that is plug and play instead of into the board. And come from a top down perspective so you get more effective room on the ESC. You could darn near keep the SAV2 the same size, do a top in wire configuration along with no separate on/off wire and have the perfect ESC.

Lastly, please look into making the REV8 as I will call it compatible from 2S up to 4S at a minimum, and any pole compatible like the RX8 and new Viper ESC is. this would be a big selling factor for guys running 4x4 SCTs and 1/8 electrics, as well as waterproof. Could standardize on just 1 ESC for those types.

Thanks. I'll probably give them a call to follow up.

hey guys, i really want too get a new esc and im gonna try out sped passion but my only concern is if the reventon stock esc will fit under the tlr 22 body or b4.1 body ? and does the reventon stock come with a program box ? im sure this has been answered before but ive never used speed passion gear :lol:

oh and also what is the factory settings for lipo cutoff ?

thanks for any info!
