@rccarnut.. You happen to have a movie from that little monster? from what i've seen on a basic 4200 on 8 cells in a RS4MT, it is a blast.. It has got endless power, so that 5300 must be pretty mad....

The warrior also works with the programming cable, but it does not have as many settable features(can adjust acceleration, timing, and a couple other things on the warrior).

Okay, I reprogrammed and see if this sounds correct.

-Hold full throttle until it beeps 3 times. Then full brake.

-Then full throttle again to get in to parementer mode. beeps 3x -put in neutral and motors beeps 2x.

-Move throttle to full brakes-1x beep- throttle back to neutral 2x beeps- full throttle then 3x beeps- back to neutral- 2x beeps. Now set to car mode.

-After this I just kept pulling full throttle and got 3 beeps and the 2 beeps to get through each parementer until it stops. (I don't know what parementers to really change)

- I then cut it off and back on and it works.

Can't really test it out. Between the dew and the mosquitos I'll wait. Does this sound right though?

Thanks for all the help guys.

according to this

with this;

Quote:
-Hold full throttle until it beeps 3 times. Then full brake.

-Then full throttle again to get in to parementer mode. beeps 3x -put in neutral and motors beeps 2x.
you restore the parameter defaults.

After that it should (be) shut down, i don't know what it does with the rest of the parameters you are giving it..

Mosquitos are a plaque here too.. I don't understand the meaning of their lifes either..

Ok, here is the deal. After programing the truck doesn't have all the problems as before. But it does still have the cut off problem when I give it full throttle. If I ease into it I don't have the trouble. So I am guessing it is the current limiter? I'm geared 18/84. Any thoughts of how to help this? Other than going up to the 160amp.

Make sure you are in the "reduce rpm" setting. If you are in race mode or cut-off at 5v, the esc will cut power to the motor. Also, make sure both capacitors are intact. You could add extra capacitors and that may do the trick.

How do you select a different setting? Hitting the brake while in programming?

Follow the directions and input the forward trigger as many times to set it into reduce RPM mode. Or, you could put it into "race mode" where there is no LVC effect.

Hey Bigair, I just found the same thread at www.radiocontrolzone.com and I just wanted to know where did you find it better to get answers and suggestions? Here or there?


The name is Alawi. You can call me Al.
Nice to meet you!

I have found more help here.

As for the batteries it happens on most of my gp's but not as bad on my cheap cells.

The cheap cells don't push the amps to it.

It sounds to me like a damaged capacitor on your speedo..

The pulses that the controller takes from the batteries are deadly (temporary ) for the voltage of the batteries. (batteries simple can't stand any high frequency pulse load) .A capacitor absorbs those pulses and makes it a nice and easy on the batts clean amp draw. When a capacitor dies, it is no longer able to absorb those pulses, and may cause in what you are suffering.

However it also might have got something to do with the BEC on your speedo. you could exclude both things;

one by adding a capacitor to your circuit and two to use a seperate receiver pack.
