I tried searching but couldnt find an answer.
I just installed a Reventon R into a 22t. I broke in the diff and the slipper clutch just fine. Turned it off. Then i put it on the track, ran 1 lap, and the throttle died (still had steering.) Took it off, powered it off, and then checked all wires/plugs and it looked ok. Then I put it back on the track, lined up for racing, and got down the straight away before the same thing happened again.
It appears that after about 1 minute of running with the occasional full throttle, it shuts off.
When I arrived home I did some testing and reset my neutral/throttle/brake and checked settings on the ESC and all appeared acceptable. Then was testing the throttle, giving it some juice, and after about 1 minute it just cuts off.
Any idea? The temps on both ESC and Motor are ambient. I used 3 different lipos (all have less then 4 cycles on them) Any idea? Bad ESC? (brand new reedy sonic 17.5 motor as well.)

Hello Solara,
First of all thanks for posting lots and lots of very useful information in both speed passion threads.
A few quick question I have a Reventon Pro and a Comp MMM 10.5 in a HPI Blitz 2wd SCT.
I have been playing with the DRRS 3.0 settings to get the best mix of traction and power. Is this setting limiting the maximum current to be pulled from the battery/current sent to the motor at x throttle position? or is it changing the throttle curves to be softer or more aggressive.
Secondly is the overheat protection of 95Deg for the motor or ESC ?
Thirdly I am running the Mod2 firmware as recommended by you.
How much do the power/brake curve/power application vary to the Stock0 Firmware? (I ask this due to our class requiring blinky mode but I prefer Mod2 with no timing)
Is there any tables or data that show how the firmwares vary behind the scenes.
Thanks.

I looked at the -R but the Pro combo was less than USD 20,- more so I took the combo. But I'll keep it in mind as the -R and -S share the same BEC, I might get either one for a future project.

Think you need to send it in. Get an RMA number. Same thing that happened to my first one.
