Where can i find current set up sheets? I only see set ups from 2011 for stock buggy Or stock SCT. Thanks.

Not sure if it matters, the buggy runs GT 2.0 and SCT runs Revention pro

I have a GT 2.1 Prostock and was just cleaning my truck and now when I turn on the speed control it gives lots of short beeps. Then just random short and longer beeps. The steering still works fine but nothing with the motor. Ideas?

Try reloading software and calibration. Not sure how you cleaned but hopefully nothing shorted out.

You can ask Blinky Blake or even Jake McGuire. Blake runs the Reventons and Jake used to before he signed with AE/Reedy. In any case, if you're running stock I would max the DRSS or run at least 7. Disable heat and voltage protection. Brake settings are more driver preference. In SC I was running somewhere around 80%.

V4 spec motors are now in stock and available!

http://shop.speedpowerrc.com/competition-v4-0/



We've had a lot of our top spec drivers testing them in 17.5 2wd buggy, shortcourse, 13.5 wheeler, USGT, TC, and all the other spec classes. Everyone has given positive feedback and noted they run faster with less heat than other motors they were running.

Just received the Bluetooth device for programing the ESC works great, no laptop needed.

Hi guys I'm new I have a speed passion reventon s that's not working. I installed it on my kyosho zx-6 with a reedy 13.5 motor ran great then it stopped. I checked it over and the power wire on the capacitor came off. I soldered the wire back on and still no go. The program box still connects and the lights are not blinking and on but still it doesn't work I opened it up to see if any thing is fried and I did not see anything cooked. Is there anything I can do?

You can also fill out an RMA and send it in for service.

I fried mine and it wasn't covered by warranty. I also have to call them to see what the story is with another I sent to them. The first one was reverse polarity, the second, I don't know. However, the second was purchased second hand, so I have no idea about warranty.

The RMA is just so they can track it I think.
