You can do that, however, maybe what you need to do is look and see if your battery is up to the task.

Hey questions, I had to throw in a speed passion becuase I was having problems with my Novak.. But when I plugged in the Speed passion with the Novak Blastic it was noticeably way slower. Do you guys have a video or a set to reprogram it or something to make it for it's faster? I have the programming box.. (My Novak was stock nothing on it programmed besides no reverse)

Any help is appreciated.

so if I am understanding you right, you put in a speed passion ESC as your Novak ESC went bad.

What ESC exactly did you put in?

What program box do you have?

What software is on the ESC?

What motor exactly are you using?


There are actually some nice setups on speed passions site for the ESC and a given software. I would find one that matches what class you are running and similar speed of motor and go from there.

Turn off lipo cutoff and give that a try. Make sure you charged your lipo fully.

Anyone have the anwser to my question on how to make it like stock or something? Say the difference in the two are like night and day and it shouldn't be that much of a difference.. If there is how can I make it better?

I run the SP 2.0 LPF ESC in my 2wd B4. I run 17.5 stock buggy (No Timing) and have my settings adjusted accordingly according to my stock factory program box (Non digital, original Software).


When I was racing last night, I have noticed that the throttle is very intermittent at times. I have tried a new sensor cable, and even changed models on my Radio (Fut. 3PKS using 2.4 Fasst).

I have checked the radio settings and it has a Linear CRV setting for the trigger, meaning it should be an equal as I give it throttle, yet it seems like its doing something erratic. Could it BE a bad sensor port on my ESC?

Got my GT2.0 Pro in the mail today. Got everything wired up and installed, except for the receiver and transponder. I need to buy another SR3500.

Otherwise, looks good. I like the DRRS settings. Makes having a 7.5T lazy or balls out.

Something else I noticed. I don't have a glitch buster installed on the receiver and the car doesn't cut out. I'm guessing the BEC's are better than the Viper and Tekin I have. Hopefully that stays that way. I'm out of space.

Edit: The fan sounds like a pocket helicopter. Insanely loud.

You can't put the esc in blinky mode with the standard box. You need the lcd to do so.

So even if I turn off timing, its still not correct? So do you know if the digital boxes that are the same as SP, but used for different Mfgs (HW) can be formatted and switched to the SP software?

I have a spare HW digi box I'm willing to sacrifice.
