Also make sure you use the rubber plug for the programming port on the aluminum version.
I was using the 160a, rcmart already refunded me

Currently on the TS-120A is approved. No word on the 160A yet. I am hoping that they do soon.

Questions??

Does anybody know what are default settings with new TS120A for throttle and break? Application shows both Throttle rate and Break force out of range, see picture. (unit had 1.x firmware and I upgraded to V. 2.04) Usually I just click some of available settings like weak or strong. But I started to think - maybe this default setting which does not correspond to anything GUI has is some special very good setting

And second - version 2.04 has lost feature that you can turn it off by holding break. Any way to get it back?

I have a Toro SC120, Model: SK-300052-01, and he has no brakes at all, I tried all the settings, brakes are very sluggish, hardly noticeable, back is, the panel 100%, the same Toro 150A, the motor slows down immediately and without problems. programmed via the PC controller many times, reconfigured the console and the controller, the brake is very weak.

The SC120 will always have weaker brakes than the TS-150. Set brake strength to max and Brake 1 to very strong and Brake 2 to very strong.
That should help.

I have the same problem. I found that Initial break and Drag break works - so, if I set Initial break to let say 30%, then breaks get much better. But all in all I think this is more of a workaround then real solution. Would be nice if SkyRC would fix this.

I take it you guys are still talking about the SC120?
