I didn't realize you were running a VTX10R, Mike, that's good to know though. Therefore, I retract my previous comment, some fast guys are running Vipers :)
Having said that... when I was first looking for ESCs, our local guys pretty much told me to stay away from Viper based on some local drama. It sounds like those bad vibes have passed, which is good. -Mike |

Can somone help me with a problem that I am having with my speed control?
When I turn my car on the wheels will spin for 3 sec and stop. :confused: |
Anyone have a flow team that can't repeatedly find neutral? I have not installed new fw yet.
I've trained it twice. My trim is 0, subtrim is 0, I even turned off my throttle trim switch completely. I'm using my 4pk-s and 614 receiver. Never had issues with multiple other escs/servos. Only this Lrp. I turned on ans saw that it wasn't neutralled before a run. So I trimmed it forward. Then when I pulled the car off the track, it was like it had decided the original neutral point was correct and the forward trim was providing forward drive (as it should have been), but it wasnt when I went out. It was showing to be trimmed forward to achieve neutral. Any suggestions? |

Hey guys,
Can i have basic setup for 35meter straight with mid traction and tactical track. Lrp Flow pair with reedy 13.5t. Thank you. |
Tried to upgrade the firmware on my Flow last night .
Will accept 5.0 with no problems . When I tried to load the 3.3 , the ESC accepts the down load & lets me reset the throttle. Blue lite comes on but no power to the motor .. Tried four or 5 times and fails to accept the 3.3 .. Does anyone have a idea why my FLOW won't accept the upgrade 3.3 firmware ? |

Does anyone have a idea why my FLOW won't accept the upgrade 3.3 firmware ? 1. when updating the firmware, make sure that the battery is unplugged, and the on/off switch is in the off position. 2. After the update, you will need to do a factory reset. with the ESC off hold the set button and then turn on ESC. there wont be any indicator if you did this since the reset is instant. 3. Sometimes the USB port gets loose. check for connection or use different port on computer. After that you should be able to program and calibrate. |

Programs just fine on the 5.0 Now have to use the 5.0 because the 1.3 is no more & 3.3 won't load . |

What's the benefit of the 3.3 opposed to the 5.0? Going to run a FLOW in Stock TC..

What does your computer tell you when you are trying to install the firmware? is there any warning windows or error codes that pop up?
When you give it throttle nothing happens . Load the 5.0 and everything performs as it should ... |
try deleting your 3.3 file and getting a new one, maybe that file got corrupted. New file with new install.

Any way to tell what software is installed without hooking up to computer?
