I don't believe so but it has blinking mode and I ran it at a race that did check but it wasn't a huge race

Hi all
I have a 120a comp esc that did work nice the first 5 mins. After it start to cut off the power and i was thinking it may start overheating but it was not that.
So it did random cut off att the track so i connect my wifi and put boost and turbo too 0 too see if that was the problem.
So i put down my drifter and after few coners did it agin a random cut off and now when i connect my wifi and try to connect so now it will not let me
connect to the esc. and after every power off do i have recalibre the esc. the wifi works nice on my other toro 120a comp esc.
so my question is the esc dead or is there any hope to get it alive?
Its brand new the esc but there is a problem for me too send it back that it will be more expensive for me to send it back that buy a new one.
About when i start the esc it start blinking green and it same when i connect wifi it start to blink green and when i start the app on my phone
so just before the app get connection with wifi then my esc blink red and and i get message on my phone that app has stoped :/

I ended up with the ts120 for now. Unfortunately I didn't pay attention and ordered the plastic case versions (I got 2) by mistake. Hopefully it won't cause me too many problems.

anyone know the fan specs on this esc? I know this has been asked before but the fan sure is loud and way overkill for my application.

Shouldn't need fans and the plastic 120 is what I ran myself

My program box just showed up so I was able to finally update my esc to the latest firmware... it was a piece of cake with the program box, not so much with the wifi box.

One thing I noticed on my TS120A (aluminum) is that in the software the option is there to set the BEC to 6v or 7.4v. This was the case with the initial firmware before updating, and the option is still there once I upgraded to the latest firmware, so I'm assuming this is a real option/feature of this ESC?!? Am I going to have issues setting it to 7.4v?

Are you guys setting the lvc or leaving it set to auto? I'm assuming 6.4v is an OK setting for running 2S? I'm assuming 6.4v is for all cells, so 3.2v per cell. Or should I just leave it set to auto?

I have my TS120A running a castle 1410-3800kv 4-pole motor in my SCT and it runs it seems to run fine in sensored moded. I was worried this wouldn't work, but so far so good.

I'm running this in a 2wd SCT (Blitz) so looking for ESC setup tips for 2wd SCT. Most setups I've seen posted in this thread seem to be aimed at high-bite carpet tracks. Anybody else running these in 2wd SCT and have setup suggestions for tweaking the setups posted?

ts120 dose not have 7.4v option and not sure why it has it on program and yes you can switch it but it will still be 6.0v

It seems that there is a bug in TS120 Forward/Brake/Reverse mode, the reverse function will be disabled if the motor temperature is high, eg, after running in Boost or Turbo for a few minutes, then reverse will be disabled, but after the motor is cooled down , the reverse function can work again. I don't know whether it is a firmware bug or hardware bug, my hardware is v1.0, firmware v2.07

Well after being reasonably pleased with my ts120a I thought I'd give the ts160a a go in my new 2wd buggy (plus from a price perspective there isn't much between them.

first challenge I had Was That I could not get the progbox to connect (as mentioned here). Through a bunch of fiddling, a lot of good luck and something im not exacrly sure about i did finally get it connected via pc which allowed me to upgrade the prog box firmware and it now seems to connect. It now seems to connect as expected though I must admit the naming of options could be done a little clearer for a better user experience.

Will be giving it a run soon and let you know how it goes.

Any toro esc that supports drive frequency?

So.. had my first run out with the ts160a today. Still too soon to tell but it seems smooth enough.

I did however manage to break 3 runs off the esc fan (no idea how).

Anyone know what replacement I can order? Or if there is anything I can do to make it a bit more robust (I've never broken an esc fan in 3 years Of running before...)

Maraach

Do the 160's r160's40mm fan? They look larger?
