Download the v3.2 software. Also the firmware you want to download into the lcd program box is V1.08_120504

Hope that answers your question, if not let us know

You will also need to use a file unziper. I use www.jzip.com download that and it will open the file for you. The hobbywing software is in a rar file.

Just like Cale said, they sure do. You will most likely be responded to by Daniel, who is a great guy. He will provide you with anything you need information/customer service wise

Hey guys i just signed with HWNA and FalconSekido. I have been running hobbywing esc's and motors for over a year now and love the quality and performance compared to many other brands. I have never used a hobbywing 1/8 motor though. I see there are many different ones out there. which do you guys recommend for 1/8 ebuggy racing?

rcboy1

I use the 2250Kv motor, either in sensored form on non. Many guys dont like using that high of kv, but it is more efficient to just limit your epa's (for me around 90%) then to buy a new motor when you travel to a large track. This is honestly on of the best motors I have ever used from any manufacturer; it is nearly indestructible and it pulls extremely hard.

Whats the difference between 4068 and 4168?

rcboy1

The 4168 is a 4 pole motor, the 4068 is a 2 pole. The 4168 is overkill in every buggy, but it would be great for an e-truggy (or a missile). I see you race for Team C; and even though I dont know a whole lot about their vehicles just from the pictures/specs of their 1/8th scale e-buggy I would say use the 4068. Need another reason? It's also cheaper.

rcboy1

Oh, and by the way: Welcome to the TEAM!!!

Thanks! I looked in features and it says 4068 is 4 pole not 4168. Also 4274 more for monster trucks?

has anyone tried a 4 pole motor with the xtreme stock esc?? i want to remove my sctpro esc for the added timing and boost the xtreme provides....

rcboy1

Sorry about that, I always get those two confused. The non 4-pole is what you want.
I am assuming you mean the sct 4-pole. I have never used the Extreme esc but i believe it is similar to the V2. In that case, it will run the motor very well. I do believe though that the esc is mean more for stock/spec racing. You want the 120amp V2.1 if you are running this in a 4wd SCT.

Right...like RCBOY said, i wouldnt use that for a 4 pole plus its not really needed and adding timing on these big 4 pole motors creates heat and they 4 poles run warm enough without timing. Not sure what boost would do to a 4 pole...never heard of anyone doing it atleast
