Speed Passion Reventon Pro Issues *ongoing*

[cornishboy176]

Sent my reventon Pro off to Schumacher as I couldn't get any throttle on it,spoke to Schumacher today, they haven't found anything wrong with it saying it is working fine, has anyone had issues with calibration on the escs? That's the only thing I can think it could be? I have changed motors,sensor leads and tried different software??

Thanks

What radio gear are you using?

Are your end points/high points, travel and break pot turned to max before calibration?

Have you completed the calibration correctly? are the LED's lighting as they should to confirm neutral, full throttle and full break?

Manual: http://www.speedpassion.net/uploadfi...0thApr2013.pdf

Look at page 6.

All of my end points are at full,I have had it working then it cut out on me last week and wouldn't work,

KO Esprit II 2.4 conversion

When I get it back from Schumacher I will check aswell

Thanks

I run the Reventon Pro in 2of my buggys. Never any issues..they are sensitive to calibration. When you get it back make sure all your trims and sub trims are at Zero and EPA,s for brake and throttle are at Max.

The silly thing is the Manual says set to 100% which to us is Max. ! Unless you use a spectrum then it's only 2/3. There settings go to 150% to mix things up lol

Are you sure it's not a motor issue or sensor/ sensor lead..

I Had the same problem,

I spoke to schumacher before sending it back and between us we worked out it was the settings on my FUTABA 3VCS.

after playing about for about ten min it worked fine.

That's what I am thinking now about the calibration

I am using a KO Esprit II some of the settings for that go to 150 aswell

Right,

I have just tried adjust the hi points and no change

Then,

I changed the timing on the motor itself from 0 degrees to 20 and tried it across the floor and it has stopped doing it , changed back to 0 degrees and soon as i blipped it across the floor it started again tried it on 5 degrees and it was still doing,this is a bit strange really?? i have set it at 20 degrees and will go from there

I will try it Tuesday Night when i race next and see how it goes

Could just be a duff sensor wire.

If it is a duff sensor wire, it should drop into sensor-less and still drive.
