Flashed ESC to 1.11
All flashed without any errors, for me at least.

I was on ESC version 1.05 before and LCD version 1.03. I havent tried downgrading to be honest.

Didn't work on my side, the card still says File Error when I go into Load TF File.
After downloading & unzipping the folder from the link above, I copied the 3 firmware into microSD card & plug it into the card. Connect the 4 pin wires to the ESC and power it up. Only get File Error when tried to update LCD firmware, and same for ESC firmware.
Maybe the card isn't in a correct format, or the SD slot on the program card itself is faulty... I've kinda given up on trying to do updating now, so long as the ESC still work. This the 3rd Surpass ESC I've bought and will also be the last. They do work OK, just the lack of support/help is frustrating.
As for the few Surpass sensored motors I have running now, they've been pretty reliable.
