I checked my profiles on the laptop which has the 1.32v and the database there says 1.70 and has the 107 and 109 profiles. Which were the newest before the supercharger stuff right?

I got the 230/231 loaded and the database says 1.82 now. Do I have to download something twice? Or do I just need to load the profile into the speedo twice.

What about a profile for 2wd buggy running 13.5?

Uploaded beta software and tried several settings. Time wasn't on my side so couldn't try many things but after some changes I did there was some strange behavior of the esc.

After full throttle was applied not enough power was sent to motor and green lights were flashing on esc. Turning on/off esc few times and everything worked.

Any ideas what went wrong?

I used SP17.5 but needed to gear higher to keep up with the fast guys, next time

I then changed the settings with my LED card, turn on the esc again and the supercharger was gone. Not only it was gone, the motor felt like it was running like a 540 silver can motor and lost all its power. I tried full throttle several times again and the supercharger came back.....but intermittently.

I then change the settings again, increasing the DRRS to 8 and lowering AMTS to 2 (the second setting was level 6 DRRS and AMTS 4 I think), and guess what, the supercharger came back again. I tried changing some settings again, this time the supercharger settings and the supercharger was gone again........

I was very frustrated at this stage. So, I reverted to the pervious setting (default supercharger, DRRS 8 and AMTS 2), the supercharger came back again. It the 231 software bugged?
after updating your software, you must recalibrate your esc to your radio,

when i first installed the new software it worked, but the next time it didn't, i recalibrated the esc again and its working just fine, everytime.

hope that helps.
