Losi Xcelorin that won't go into reverse

[JackWood]

Well it seems to work fine in forward, and like Cass, I'd like reverse while I'm bashing around, getting used to the car before I go and try my hand in a comp.

If anyone has a Losi system and they fancy trying to see if theirs works in reverse, it would be nice to know. I don't really fancy sending it back if it is a common issue. I'd rather hang on to it and give it a good thrashing and just live with the lack of reverse.

So if anyone fancies trying to stick theirs in a reverse mode, and letting us know yay or nay if it works, and what version of firmware it does or does not work with, that would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

hi mate.

you may need to configure your speedo for your reverse to come-in correctly. try to setup the percentage of reverse throttle.

Thanks. I did try that, and braking percentage, and calibrated reverse to only half of the stick travel so that it was over-switching when the stick was pulled all the way back. And a bunch of other things.

It works very intemittently. You can prod the lever back a few times, then it will reverse, and you release the stick and pull again and it won't go again. Like the ESC is getting its knickers in a twist.

We are not allgoing mad, yay!!

"Version 28 and lack of reverse function update.

From testing it appears that the file is corupt that is available on the download page.

A confirmation test will be finished tomorrow morning and will have the file replaced on the download page. I will add a line indicating it has been updated AND will also post that it has been updated.

Sorry the the confusion and inconvience this has caused. "
