99.9% yes. I haven't looked at it in a few days, but if it were connected backwards the ESC wouldn't work at all. The ESC its self works perfectly. It just won't connect to wifi. If your connecting with iOS 6.1.3 that shoots down my theory it's a problem with the new OS. That means I have to be doing something wrong. Have you ever used the reset button? I'm guessing with me trying all the stuff I have tried I have managed to screw up the static ip. I'll try a reset in the phone & on the adapter again, maybe it will work this time.

Got an email about a motor sale and was wondering are the Competition V3.0 Motors sensored?

Hey guys, I just installed a silver arrow v2 in my SC truck. I'm running a Revtech 3800kv 4xs. The ESC gives my the blinking red and green lights indicating it has switched to sensorless mode. It still runs but switches into sensorless mode. I've switched the sensor wires three ( all new). When i first turn it on it does not switch, only when I give it full throttle will it then switch. Anyone had this problem?? If so how did you fix it. Thank you!

I've read that most don't recommend the silver arrow v2 for 2s sct use.

I don't use a silver arrow I use a Reventon pro or a GT2.0 pro with stock 0 in them. But I did se a post not to far back about cutting one of the sensor wires to get a motor to work. look threw this thread or contact SP Directly for the best info.

Yes... The R brakes are weak and you won't be pleased. Get the Pro use Mod 2 and all is good. If you really want an R I'll sell you my old one for $50

Do you have another motor you can try?

Do you have a motor that can work on 4S to try?

I know that it has been said the SAV2 doesn't work on 2S (or maybe just reliably) according to SP, that is why the recommend the GT2.0 Pro. But I have heard from a variety of people who do use the SAV2 on 2S with no issues, and if the rumor about the guts being the same as what HW 120Amp unit is, that one is stated to work on 2S.

Ok, this came in last week. Everything looks good accept for the instructions, a little small.
I really like the terminals on the V3.0 17.5 motor.
I'm guessing since this is a stock spec ESC and motor it won't require module, but not for sure.

After reading thru and hooking everything up, I'm still having some issues.
I'm not real sure if I'm getting into the setup program in order to adjust the lipo cutoff range.
Seems the only thing I can adjust is my radio end points. Then I have a solid orange light and a blinking red light. What is this telling me? Low voltage, or blinky mode? Any help would be great.

Hello

I have just recieved my 2 5.5R 1/10 Speed passion motors.
But both motors run pretty tight when i turn them in my hands.
Is this normal and just need to run them a couple of times? or?

tight as in bound up? That would probably not be good. Tight as in a strong magnet? go for it.

I'm thinking about up grading from my ultra sportsman (17.5) for my sc10. I bet the 3.0 that's on sale will be a big improvement but would the MMM be worth the extra $40?? Help me decide.thanks
