The original hotwire will work with your RSX. Just make sure you have downloaded the latest software from our website to your computer.

ok thank you

Ok so I still have the issue where the advanced block and the default setting block will not allow me to click on it. I have uninstalled and reinstalled at least five times. When I click on help to see what version the Hotwire is, it says 10.4.2. I thought it was supposed to be 10.2 ?? I have windows 7 and I also have the hotwire app on my Galaxy S3...can the RSX be updated on the hotwire app? Thanks for any help.

Well I decided to dig out my old laptop with widows XP on it and Hotwire installed correctly with 10.2 and everything works as it should with my RSX now. So, there is something going on with Wndows 7.

I just ordered one of these and will have it next week. I really like the RX8 programming setup, and hope this is similar with the hot wire? I also have a HV servo, so the 7.4 will really help with my Savox 2271 servo, on a Dex410.

Win7 works just fine. There are certain types of installs of it where part of the .net framework isn't installed. We have the info to chec/sort it out on our Hotwire FAQ page.

Yup very similar

I see the issue here "it says 10.4.2"

You need to go in and delete an old "Hidden" file that the OS likes to hang onto. This is no longer an issue once you've removed it from here on out.

There's a how to video on our Youtube page "Vista how to" that lines it out, same steps but simply looks a tick different. Same idea.

You'll be set after that.

Yes the programming is the same howeverl the RSX will allow you to play with sensored only mode and boost which is RPM based timing advance and turbo (time sensitive timing advance) features which the RX8 does not have. Otherwise all the other features and the hotwire interface is identical.

Thanks, I will have my sometime next week, awesome! Now I can use my RS Pro for another car. That RS Pro is very powerful.

So radio calibrating says to put epa and dual rates to 100%..... Why not 150?

What would be the benefit of doing 150%?

Just wanted to mention how awesome the tekin support was at motorama a few weeks ago. They really helped me out with my rsx and gen 2 motor. Customer for life!

You can do 150,it's just more resolution. We generally recommend 100% that way when you talk to someone you can say "I have my brakes at 80%" for example.

A buddy of mine is letting me try his speed passion 7.5R motor, before I hook it up to my RSX, I wanted to know if it would work okay with it? Also, anyone know when the new update to fix the clicking noise will be out? Thanks

Was just wondering the same thing. I'm not convinced the noise isn't causing any problems. In my B5M the clicking is amplified through the drive train. When on the stand its much louder and i can see the wheels stutter/jump/hesitate (however you want to describe it) in unison with the noise coming from the motor. That's how i noticed it, breaking in a new diff on the bench. It was so bad i thought i may have built the diff incorrectly.
