Once you downloaded the V1.35 onto your computer, you DO NOT need internet access to access your firmware...you just need your LCD programmer card to connect your ESC to Computer and let them do the talking. You choose your SOFTWARE within at trackside or practice, without any WI-FI required...

But you will need your COMPUTER and LCD Programmer card in order to change software....you just need your LCD programmer card if you want to change setting but using the same, installed software.

No...they look the same, but totally different. We purposely make them different because Club Spec ESC has no timing adjustment, is design for club racing, ROAR sportsman racing, or any kind of no timing racing...

Short Course master has timing adjustable feature....and other features that club spec not required to have. You use club spec because you have to meet your track requirement...you use SCM because the class that you are racing does not have any restriction on the ESC setting.
