I have a SP Rventon R in an Xray t3.

I read through the instructions very carefully and discovered the "note 3" by the 5.5t

I've used it a lot since purchase in Jan with a 13.5t motor and it was fine but recently put a 5.5t motor in and it won't allow full throttle - it does a kind of emergency stop

With the car on a stand it does the same thing.. Fine until about 3/4 throttle then cuts then goes again. The orange light flashes too - suggesting esc temp.

This is with all protection turnd off.

Esc temps seem fine.. tested with 3 batteries.. no timing on ecu or motor... 13.5t runs fine - can only guess it's not able to push the steady current required by the 5.5t motor..

I've tried all the different options through reventon software and think i have everything up to date..

I read through the instructions very carefully and discovered the "note 3" by the 5.5t rating. it says something about how they only test the motor limit under the following gconditions:

a) The input is a 6 cell Ni-xx battery; b) The ESC is equipped with a fan.


Any ideas??

hobbywing 120a v2 for £100 or reventon pro 140a for the same...??
