So my Viper Copperhead system came in yesterday and my new lipos today yay! Put everything in, charged it up and wow the thing screams. No seriously it does! I'm totally happy with it and it sounds mean but is this normal? When its winding down it's like a howl. Sorry video was shot by my 8 year old

Nothing seems to be binding. I pretty much had to take everything apart putting this together. This is my first 4wd. Before this I was just 2wd and it was alot quieter.

Sent my VX10 off to Viper today. Been very impressed by their customer support so far. Emails were answered quickly and they immediately let me know the quickest way to get my ESC back.

Cant wait to get it back!

You need the PCLink cable. And we have a free software that actually allows you to update the speed control.

VLink is going to be a much more elaborate program. One of its features will be the update. But since we have the Pro Gauge, it's really not the highest priority. We have lots of cool stuff in the pipeline right now.
