The 2 new flow esc's are replacing the sxx line. Here in germany the new flow esc will be available in early september.

They are even a bit cheaper than the old sxx line.

Sad , always nice to see Made in the USA or Made in Germany, both a sign of quality.

That statement is false, LRP speed-controls are NOT made in China!

I would love to support LRP again....but only if the Flow kicks the crap out of the Orion R10...which is the smoothest esc I've driven.

So, then were are they made? According to the Rules of origin you are obliged to state in which country they are made - respectivly where the last substantial transformation took place.

I have the packaging of a sxx v2 in front of me and I'm not able to find any sign of the origin on it. Neither on the speedo.

You only state "german technology"... That brings me to the conclusion you are not allowed to use the "Made in Germany" tag because it requires various specifications you don't fulfill.

So Reto, please enlighten us and tell us were the new LRP speedos are made.

Default Just intalled

Hi,
I already have installed the new board, but the motor is getting to hot, I am using the same FDR I was using on the SXX Stock Spec (with boost) 6.0 on a big track, after 4min the esc cuts-off (motor temp)
here is my setup on the new board:
Mode1 - 3
Mode2 - 2
Mode3 - 6
Mode4 - 0
Motor - Pure Evolution 13,5T
FDR - 6.0 (36-108)

then I have changed the FDR to 6.17 and it cuts-off at 5min
then changed to 7.2 FDR and cuts-off at 4min

anyone can give me an advise on the settings and FDR?
thanks

+1 Some German manufacturing have been moved to nearby countries like Czech, Poland, Switzerland etc (Bosch.Wera)

Am I the only one that gets excited when a "Made in China" product lasts more than 1 use?

I have a friend who's sponsored by ae and he has a flow in his 4wheel buggy and it's amazing but im with team orion and when the flow comes out i don't think it's gonna kick the crap out of the r10's. My opinion they should change the color from blue to grey or black and maybe it will work better

well see how it is when it comes out!

I'm sure you guys will like the new speedo.

As to the "Made in ..." statements, I'm not a lawyer and no expert on that subject as to when a product is allowed to carry which country. Obviously electronic components are sourced worldwide.
But I guess I can state that all our speed-controls are designed inhouse at LRP in Germany and that our production facility, which is also closely related to LRP, is located in Europe.

Just like Novak: "Designed and manufactured by Team Novak in Irvine, California using the best components from around the globe." Guess they were sued for using "Made in USA"
