Hobbywing Xtreme Stock 60A
Hi,
I've got a strange problem with my Hobbywing Xtreme Stock 60A!
I did an esc update from version V2.0_100422Stock to V2.0_100518Stock.
When I was driving on the circuit I hit a curbstone (not a big crash or something) and the car just died, no steering and throttle... So I decided to change the software back to the 422Stock, but after that the green led light beeps for 2 times continiously. This means that it has an abnormal input voltage, to high or to low. Is it possible the PC software, the program box software and the esc software aren't working all together propperly?
I also have to say that I drive with a 1/12 scale car with a booster (or a reciever LiFe 6,6V battery 2s). And I'm starting to wonder if I had a different kind of esc software version before the 422 and 518stock versions.
I was just starting to like the esc but all the problems started after a simple upgrade...
I tried to connect a 7.4V 2s LiPo battery to the esc and it stoped beeping and I had acces to the program! But it refuses to work with the 422 version! And if I upgrade it to the 518 version I know that the car is going to stop on the circuit after a small touch or bump against the sidewall of the circuit!
What could couse it to stall???

Try re-updating the software on the box, then double upload of the 422 software to the ESC. When doing this always use a 2S battery to power the ESC.

The xtreme stock wasnt designed to run 1S and using extrenal booster is a no no as it doesnt interface with hobbywings software so the signals are mixed and confused .so thats the reason your getting low voltage signal a it doesnt detect the voltage through the booster
By you hitting a bump and all this happening i suggest you have a good look at your reciever and the wiring to your reciever there might be something loose somewhere .
but to be honest with you the esc is not made to run with 1S no matter what booster you use .
please email me at [email protected] so i can help you further .

It seams to me that Ben didn`t have a problem with the extreme stock speedo wich was doing real great with 1s lipo. Speed and punch at the same time. Its a shame people are told to buy the more expensive 120 1s when they can get the same with the extreme by using a booster.
Only thing is do you leave the switch on. And is the 518 software providing an 1s cutt off voltage to guard the lipo voltage drop?
