The LED on the ESC should be blinking to show that its blinky software.

Cant say as to why theirs 2 Speed Passion threads, just that good I guess haha.
Second, There is no Reventon out yet that supports 1s, nor do they work with Boosters that anyone knows of, The Reventon 1s capable esc is in the works and hopes of before the end of the year I beleive.

One is ON ROAD and the other one is mainly for OFF ROAD.

2 things we are doing...(1) REVENTON PRO-EX will be release, but I do not know when, still testing. (2) We might release a booster pack that will work on REVENTON series ESC so customer can use that with Reventon S, Stock Club Race or Reventon R....as well as PRO.

This combo has been great and I'm wondering if it could be better.
Thanks for the help!

Mark,

That profile will work great as others have stated. A bigger upgrade would be to a MMM 17.5. That combination of ESC and motor will be more competitive at Trackside. We have a few drivers who race there such as Ryan Pratl. Keep an eye out for him in the pits. He is a confirmed entry for the upcoming Spektrum race.

SP Tech and other might be in attendance to help out others as well.

Firmware update or profile setting change? What is happening with the ESC? Is it powering up at all?

Default Voltage cutoff

What are you guys setting the voltage cutoff for the Reventon 2 cell. Set mine @ 3.0V and it shuts down after 4 min.......running a 7.5.....motor temp and ESC 118.....Lights indicate low voltage.....I might just shut if off....thoughts?

I have always run my Speed Passion ESCs with voltage protection off with no issues. Generally I don't race or practice anywhere near where the pack would come close to being below 3.0V.

Thats 3.0v per cell so 6v total. I never run over 6-7 minutes so I'll just turn it off.

I had this same problem with my brand new reventon pro in my b4.1. I tried 3 different motors and shutting off the voltage protection and the temp as well. None of those things helped. It would still randomly shut off and when powering back on would blink the protection code again. I sent mine back in for repair this week.
