Thank You

The flashing RED light indicates LVC has kicked in in both Sensored and Sensorless Mode. Since the Orange light is solid I am assuming your are running a sensored setup. I would try to recalibrate with all your radio EPA's set to 100% and try a fresh pack. Check out the link to the Reventon Pro manual below. Page 5 shows what the indicators mean.

Anyone use a RX8 then a revention pro? Is it worth switching, looking for smoother drivablity.

I thought it was the LVC but, second guessed myself because I had just charged it. I don't think my EPA's are 100%. I forgot to do that. Thanks for reminding me!

With the silverarrow esc can you use the revention program box?

No the Reventon box is for the Reventon series only.

yes I have they work fine

hey pete you can use the gt2.0 pro or the reventon no 4 poles though.
Talk to Bobbo thats what he runs

the issue with the reventon pro and no 4 poles was that the tests were done trying to boost the 4 pole motors. This is a big no no.

Solara: Can you confirm that you can use the reventon Pro with 4 pole motors as long as you are not using boosting features of the ESC?

the GT2.0 Pro does 4 Pole motors fine without boosting etc. I use it with the Pro4 4600kv from tekin, excellent ESC.

If I am running a external bec with the silver arrow esc I just cut red wire on the esc lead. And I can get rid of the magnet to right?

hey guys my name is James and i just bought a schuur speed 17.5 extreme stock spec motor the other day. Ron was at top notch and set my timing for me at 36* and told me to gear my 2wd slash with a 90 spur and a 31 pinion gear but it dosent fit.. i asked my local hobby shop and he told me 90 was to big for my truck to go down to a 83 spur and 31 pinion.. 83/31 fits in my car and gives me a ratio of 2.68.. my question is do i need to change my timing now???? im very new and this will be my very first motor upgrade. thankyou for any advice

just noticed i put my last post in the wrong thread sorry for the mix up

dumb question but, I'm using a sportsman motor with the reventon and the esc timing is on mod1 (18.75). Will this effect the esc running because of the timing? I mean, would the esc throw a code because I'm using a fixed timing motor?

You should be fine running the sportsman motor. There are 2 different types of timing, ESC timing and MOTOR timing. On your motor, the timing is locked, but you can still tune the performance using ESC timing.

I would suggest taking the red pin out of the connector, folding it back and wrap it with electrical tape. That way you wont need to replace the RX wire if you decide to not run with an external BEC. The "magnet" is actually called a choke. Its just a piece of iron that acts as a filter, ensuring the signal to the RX is clean. It doesn't hurt to keep it on, but if you want to remove it, do so at your own risk.
