So my question is...i see alot of people having issues with software, if i get the Xtreme stock and want the zero timing(blinky software along with 17.5t motor) everyone says teh software is marked wrong and ive only used the LCD box to change settings and NEVER used it to change software so can someone link up the Blinky software and whats the best way to change softwares??? I will save them to my laptop so i will always have the 2 softwares i want and dont need to continue to hook it up to the computer to keep getting the stuff i need. Please and thanks...
It's actually pretty simple ...

1. Download and install the latest version of the USB Link Software -
Version 3.1_120808 onto your computer.

2. To change software on V2 ESC's (Justock, Xtreme)
  • Open the Hobbywing USB Link 3.1 application on your computer
  • Choose ESC Speed Controller in the Device Menu at the top
  • Choose Firmware Upgrade in the left menu
  • Choose V3_508_No Timing in the Upgrade Version drop down box
  • Click Upgrade
  • Choose your settting in the other menu items on the left if you want to
  • Click Apply at the bottom
  • Recalibrate your ESC

3. To change software on the program box for V2 ESC's:
  • Open the Hobbywing USB Link 3.1 application on your computer
  • Choose LCD Program Box in the Device Menu at the top
  • Choose Firmware Upgrade in the left menu
  • Choose V1.08_120504 in the Upgrade Version drop down box
  • Click Upgrade

If you followed those steps ... You know have a V2 ESC with No Timing Software Installed and the ability to change the settings on a V2 ESC through the LCD Program Box.

You can change 'software' only using the PC, you can change 'software settings' using the PC or LCD program card.

And that's how it's done.
