I just wish the combo version was Roar legal. Been looking at this esc for 1s 1/12. Anyone have any issues or experience with it in this class?

You need the sanwa 3.7v servo to make it work.

If the Sanwa can not run under low voltages then get a booster and run the standard Sanwa mini servo. The 3.7 specs IMO are not good enough for 1/12th. It's a nice idea to have a 3.7v servo, but I'd rather have 5.0~6.0 volts running through a servo.

Ive been running the Vortex and the low voltage servo in my mod 12th car, and an Orca with hi voltage servo in my stock car. I feel NO difference in steering between the two.

The servo is .11 speed how much faster does one need?

The not good thing about this esc is that Sanwa seldom shared driver's setting in different classes as references. That in turns lowered the popularity of this esc.

Well for stock, you don't really need a setup. But I guess for mod it would be nice to know basic boost/turbo settings.

Anyone use a Trinity 24k 17.5 with a Sanwa SV-ZERO PLUS ESC?

I've used the motor with 2 different Hobbywing ESC's without issues now on the first night with the Sanwa, the Sanwa blows up in SSL mode (rb6 is a-main condition).

On the 2nd lap, it quickly saw a 247 temp reading which went down quickly to 170. Both hobbywing run for 10 minutes easily.

Now I have a Fried ESC awaiting Monday's support.

Kumusta kuya? If you had temp protection set (mode1 i think) the esc would have shut down at 120 and th motor at 120 (80'lowest setting) and could have prevented te blowout unless you set it to OFF. Could have been a number of reasons and not the esc's fault.

I havent tried a 24k on my vortexs but i have mostly trinity motors (D3.5,D4, Revtech ks, 1S) and for me they match my vortex escs well.

Temp protection was left on, I haven't changed those values as those are stock set. The only values I changed were from the remote.

Thanks guys.

Seeking some settings advise please.

I run 13.5 Boosted on a small/medium on road track. My previous ESC I was able to enter specific settings. What settings on the Vortex should I be using to replicate this;

Boost 50 degrees
Start 4,000
Finish 16,000
No turbo,
Punch Rate stage 1 20
Punch rate stage 2 20
Punch switch 50%


I have read this thread, the one in the electronics section and the instruction sheet a few times and I am still not sure what some settings do.
Can someone that understands them offer an explanation (not copy the instructions but explain what each does - i.e. boost setting - if I set this to Maximum, how many degrees of boost does it apply..?) - what effect does the throttle feel have - does this provide a more sensitive throttle application - if so, in what scenario would you use anything less than the best "feel"

Cheers,
