I wish the R/S had a bit more BEC power. 2A with a Spektrum radio is a scary proposition.

I would venture to say it is underrated. I have run the R and S both with a Spektrum DX3S/3100 and have had no issues at all. Even running a Savox on them and I was fine even without a Glitch Buster.

I also have a pro 4 question . I understand that we can't run any of the boost software but in the mod setting can I at least adjust the punch level and the timing settings available in the LCD box? Its strange to me the PRO would have issues. The amperage ratings aren't far from other ESC that run these motors.

I have tried it on 3 different reventon pros and it is the same on all of them. I have gone threw the setup mode with it several times and it will not work properly.

Is there something that I am doing wrong? anything that i may be missing in setup or trouble shooting?
Maybe a 3rd time will be the charm to get an answer?

The Pro4 motors don't like timing. Punch you can adjust however.

I've had an issue with an SR300/Spektrum S6040 servo with a Reventon R. Never got a chance to try a glitch buster, but at about 70% travel in one direction it would brown out, go to center then turn again. Repetetive cycle. Could have been the 6040 servo has a small issue, but it didn't happen with my trusty Novak Kinetic. Oddly, it didn't happen with an SR3520 RX either.

For those running the SC104x4 out there...


I'm swapping out my HW 120A ESC and I want to use my GT2.0 LPF ESC. I am using a 5.5 2pole motor. Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm retiring my B4.1 and want to use the ESC from it in my SC104x4. Need some good setup advice.

Default SP Reventon LCD smart programming card

Does anyone know where online to buy the above ... ? The postage from Speed Passion online store is as much as the card itself putting the cost with shipping at about $75USD ... Extortion if you ask me... Anyone ?

Cheers
