Also, how do I switch between setups (ie mod1 to Stock0 or back)? I cannot find anything that explains how to do that, only how to work through the flow chart to change specific settings (ie brake %).

Going to hit the track Saturday for the first time with this, super new to electric, and super excited!!! Thanks.

Stock0 is blinky

Once you see the software it will make more sense. Just update the firmware to the profile you need.

It's called expandable braided sleeving. It goes over the wire, and you use heat shrink tubing on the ends. I buy it here. I use 1/4" on most of the wires, and 1/8" on smaller wire like the antenna and the my laps.

Just picked up a Reventon Pro (silver) for my 22sct. Soldered everything up today and did basic programming using the lcd box. Now for my question lol.

How do I change into a mode which has reverse? Right now it is forward only with brake. I messed around with the lcd box and did not find any other options for reverse. Do I have to update the lcd box or the esc? If so, is that only possible via the us to pc adapter? Do they have a Mac option available yet or is it windows only?

Any help would be appreciated. New to speed passion. Thanks

To change in to reverse mode you need to hook it up to the pc via the lcd box. Or you can do it with the bluetooth or wifi adapter. I believe the program is still windows based only.

Duely noted. Your website should reflect some of this info. As far as the RMA showed it had not even been received. Hence the concern. Thank you for your understanding about my concern.

I am running the 17.5 blinky..I have the +30 timing board,and the 12.8 rotor.. Will that big rotor cause my motor to run hot? I have a 12.5 in another car and it runs cool

Honestly, I probably would use the one with the lowest resistance, profile, and weight. I believe the GT2.1 will have a better BEC as well than the Reventon R.

I have read a lot of pages of input but I haven't really seen much response about if everyone is really happy with the reventon pro. I have been running tekin rs in my 2 mod buggy and tekin rs pro in my 4mod buggy. I have always wanted smoother brakes and power band. I am seriously considering trying one in my 2 mod paired with a 10.5 3.0v motor. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. My other option is the orion r10 pro but the two are priced significantly different so I really would like to stay on a budget.
