Not sure if anyone else has experienced this or not.

I have multiple Reventon 1.1 escs. I just downloaded and installed a fresh copy into a different laptop i have. After much struggle I was able to get the firmware on the digi box to update AND get both Reventons updated with different software. STOCK0 on one and MOD2 the other.

Now, here is the odity. Having successfully connected my Reventon Pro 1.1, i am now looking to update and swap my Reventon S in a driftcar. Prior to this it was running Stock0 in a Shortcourse. Connecting it the same way as the 1.1s and it doesn't recognize the esc or open thd software. Without the computer i can use the box and make changes but i need the PC to update the profile.i just wanted to load the Drift profile to the S.


also, has anyone found an adapter cable thats Male to Male Usb 2.0 (prog box) to micro Usb (Tablet /Smartphone)? Im hopful after i reach out to a company i can find a solution so those of us who are using the App can directly connect our smart device to the box and ESC without needing the wireless or Bluetooth adapter.

Cool ESC shutting down as if hitting thermal limits.....

I am having similar issues with two different Escs First is in my B5m geared 23/81 with 8.5 V3 motor with Reventon R running stock software with 10% drag and DRRS level 2....after maybe 4 mins buggy slows to a crawl as if Lipo is dead....Temps at esc around 130 motor 110...Yes Over Heat protection is active. Any Idea what is the issue or point me in the right direction?

I figured this out, my S is now set up on the DRIFT profile

Still Curious about this though

Obviously I know it goes against the SPEEDPASSION policy, but I know folks often experiment.....

Anyone seen this:

I was looking thru and I have a couple Digi-Boxes, and thought about playing around with the MM software and experimenting with one of my spare boxes.

I recently bought a D413 with a Reventon R ESC, a 7.5t motor and a 6.5t. I run at a big track and everyone else uses a 6.5t so I put that motor in. Everything connected up fine except the B plug is loose. It just falls off. It also came with some new connectors so I soldered them up. A and C are solid but B is still loose. I have tried to crimp it down a little but it is still loose. Is there anything I can do? I can't afford a new motor at the moment.
Thanks

I guess it's the end of Speed Passion. I'm done with them. No support whatsoever. I don't need anymore paperweights.

I think they are/were the main US distributor for Speed Passion. I used to buy all my SP stuff from them.

I usually go to their FaceBook Page Speedpower, and do most of my business there. They do have a chat area and also an area to get an RMA, return merchandise authorization. They do take a long time to repair or replace items. I just make sure I have an extra Speed Controls and Motors. They're cheap enough for me to have an extra just in case.

I wonder if in the next firmware update, they could write in some code for direct application.

Namely using a Tablet or smartphone (Android) to connect direct to the box. I found a proper cable.

I picked up a v4.0 motor and noticed that the plugs are different. Is there any way to use the motor with the 3.0 connectors or do I need to solder up the new bullet connectors?
