This multi-function program box does not work with the 200A Trackstar esc. That 200A esc is part of the first generation and will only work with the card that has blinking lights - PRODUCT ID: TTS-Prog

cycle

This hasn't been answered, and I would like to know as well. Want to use the TS 150a with a 2wd SCT, have a 3300kv 4 pole. Not far over the limit, and since this esc is made for 1/8, I'm led to believe that it will handle the higher kvs in 1/10 vehicles. The motors pull lower amperage than an equivalent 1/8 motor, and the lighter weight should also factor in.

cycle: I just recently asked SkyRC support and was told that trying to run a 3500 kv motor at 4S is not advisable and could damage the TS 150A.

I have my doubts that lower load will help, if the ESC just isn't build/programmed for the required electric kv. Now if you're going to use 2S, just pick a 1/10 scale ESC.

cycle

Yeah I didn't think about the actual programming of the esc not being compatible with higher kv. I'm running 2S but just liked the idea of having the 1/8 scale esc in case I get an E-buggy someday. And that 5A BEC is nice, but I still have room for a UBEC and a small family in my sct. Thanks

Just to confirm to you guys the SkyRc and the TrackStar ESCs use different firmware inside, physically they are pretty much the same but the firmware has been designed by HobbyKing and has a few little advantages over the standard SkyRC ESC. That is why the cards aren't interchangeable. It isn't meant to make things harder for people rather it is meant to give people options.

Also, there is new firmware for the programming card on the product listing: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...grammable.html Try it out, would love to hear your comments.

I just got my programming card this week (they have been extremely hard to get recently) so going to do some testing myself this weekend.

hi, i just bought the Toro TS150 1/8 esc, i set the running mode to Forward/Brake/Reverse, set 0 on Drag Brake, when i throttle and release, move the throttle to neutral point, and move the throttle forward to brake, but what i get is reverse, i can't brake to slow down the car,

i understand that on the first forward throttle, i will get brake function, and at the second forward throttle, the reverse will kick in,

is this esc come with this function,

i try to set the car to Forward/Brake, but the car can't move,

is there anything i need to do to get this function,

thank you

Did you have your EPA's maxxed out when you calibrated?

There is an update you can do to the Progbox to get it to work on the 200A ESC. When you do it, the card will ONLY work with the 200A ESC but you can revert to the old software and it will work as it did before the update. If anybody needs the instructions to update the card just let me know and I can send them on over.

Just installed Turnigy Trackstar 150A GenII with the 1900kv Motor. Using the trackstar program box.

Works nicely.

Few questions,

1) Wondering if there are any firmware updates that i should update? cant see anything about updating on hobbyking page?!?

2) Is there a push setting for the esc tucked away some where?

3) I notice there is *Modify*, Profile 1 2 3 etc etc. How do you save a profile?

Thanks guys.

OK, I've read through this whole thread several times today and I'm still confused.

Is there any way to program the TrackStar rebrand with the SkyRC progbox? I have a SkyRC progbox and the TrackStar 150A gen ii ESC.

Thanks in advance.

No. The Trackstar esc and SkyRc programming box are incompatible.

Most companies buy a specific component (hardware) then develop the software in house to control how the esc runs. So the code is totally different than another company wrote it. Sans Turnigy, Skyrc. Why is it so hard to buy the same program box as the esc. Save yourself some disappointment.

Hello,

Has any one found a way to make the the TS Link work with Windows 10?

How long is the warranty on these esc's? Do they have to get sent overseas? I have had bad luck with packages getting lost on the way to china. It costs over $50 to ship it with tracking from California which does not make sense for a $75 esc.

I am considering one of these but the warranty procedures will decide if I pull the trigger.

Anyone care to share their good or bad warranty experiences with Trackstar esc's?
