Well, I changed out my CCLink for a different one that is newer. I also changed USB cables, so I don't know for sure if the cable was bad or not. The newer CClink worked so I backed up to v1.24. I then went back to the 1.32 Beta, and it didn't work. Same results... just wouldn't take off in either direction with any power at all, unless I lifted it off the ground. Backed down in increments to 1.30, etc.. and gave up after 1.29 because they weren't working. Loaded 1.24 and it works. Very strange.

Thing is... I tried that with the "older" CCLink plug that I have, and NONE of it worked. So, I think that older CCLink tip is fubar. Seems like I've had this problem once before, but it's been a LONG time so I can't remember! That's what made me think of switching out CCLinks.

The one that doesn't work has a sticker on the back that says: 2717 06/09 B.14.
The one that does work says 2939 08/09 B.16

So.. mystery solved! However... it sure is weird that my truck just BARELY moves with the Beta FW. But if you pick it off the ground.. LOOK OUT! Check for loose articles of clothing because if something gets caught in a tire... teeth will get knocked out.. or you'll have broken wrists! LOL!

Thanks!
