HW ESC Settings!

Please for off-road Astro!!!

Hey,

So I just got the ota programmer for my xmaxx 8s with hobbywing 6s and leopard 1160kv motor. This truck used to scream. I was having an issue of after 5 minutes it was cutting off and I would turn it off and back on which will make it run fine. I ordered the programmer and did the software update, and this truck is slow as heck now. I’ve been through the settings and can’t figure it out. Any advice?

Thank you very much for all the videos, it is very interesting for beginner. Could you please give your advice on the setting for a 13.5 motor on asphalt track. I practice in “rc infinity” track in Bangkok. Thank you again.

the explanations for the TRC and PWM are somewhat the same. always referred to as "punchy". which one would you dial in first?

Does anyone have a 4.5 turn drag motor starting points ?

Hi. How can I activate the real time data function?

Hi there, great video!
I think you convinced me to get one of those OTA programming dongle.
I am returning to the hobby and I am trying to relearn lost skills and being able to change a few settings in the filed and save profiles is very useful when compared to the programming box either on it's own or linked to a pc.
A quick question, what particular setting would you recommend to play with to help me manage the speed and power of that these modern machine have too offer?
I have Hobbywing stock motors on my 1/10 4WD buggy and 2WD touring and XR10 Pro V2 on both and I still struggle to manage their power and speed.
Thanks.

Will the OTA programmer work with the Hobbywing HW-711 ESC? I cannot find anything on this ESC anywhere.

Thank you!!!

Hi Alex, do all pro mod racers use drag brake? because every time I try it I feel like it slows the car down too much through the corners.

Outstanding information. Thanks!

I guess you change the motor pretty often, compared to the average hobby racer. If you have like 35-40 degrees of timing on the motor, then add 28-40 on the esc, you'll have a lot of timing added. I must ask you, do you change motor often? I mean you probably change the whole car once or twice a year! :p

How does throttle and brake pwm affect temps?

How can i get a low throttle for a drift spec.
I use xr10 pro & 8.5T . Really hope that u can help me:)

Thanks for the video. With the OTA can I with the ota change from blinking mode to stock or modified mode on my XR10 Justock to give my 17.5T hobbywing motor a little more power? Thanks

I like how you explain how to use the settings to a racers advantage, I see here it looks like your talking to on road racers. I race 1s 21.5 oval 146' run line do you have any suggestions for me on how to set up my ESC for oval? I appreciate any suggestions that you can give me and oval racers on this subject!

What is the limit of timing combine motor turbo and boost in a 3.5 turn motor max timing?

so far this is the most detailed explaination about the esc program/setting,, actually im looking for other esc but yeah, not so different and still got the knowledge from this video,, thank You !

Outstanding explanation

Hi Alex, do you know the difference between this OTA Programmer and the previous version of Wifi Express?

My hobby wing xerun xr10 pro esc , with xerun d10 10.5 motor don’t have options for motor directions. I. Tried using led program card, but still not showing motor directions. I’ve been driving by switching blue wire to orange all this time until I burned out my motor last week because I put sensors wire to connect esc and motor.
Could you please guide me how to switch the motor direction?
Thank you 🙏

Good info. Subscribed!

A quick question: Do we have more parameters to change if we use the ota? Or is it the same thing of the lcd card/computer?

If I set the end bell to 30 degrees timing and 20 boost and 20 turbo does that add up 70 degrees total timing ? How does that effect performance ?

Great video exactly what I needed, I'll be referring back to this on many occasions. Thank You. 👏👍

Alexander, can you explain why you choose a 4.5 vs. a 5.0 motor for outdoor asphalt? I'm setting my car up for a medium sized asphalt track. Most of the racers here are using a 5.0 but I was thinking a 4.5 might be better, but I'd like to hear how you make that decision. Thank you from California!!

Alex, I just wanted to say thanks for taking the time to answer the comments and help the RC community. It is usually tough to answer questions about electronics and your patience is appreciated!

Thank you Alex

Very nice video. Can I use OTA programmer in Hobbywing QUICRUN 10BL60? Thanks and greetings from Tampa, Florida.

hello for 🇬🇷 what is best set up for 1/8 buggy for race?I have 1900kv motor and xr8 pro esc to mx8r mugen tnks

No one has done such a detailed overview of the OTA I bet even half the pros don’t even know half of the parameters…

Thank you.

I just got mine for the max8 g2 combo.. I dont have a 1/3 of all of thoose settings... Wonder why

I can’t find the motor rotation help

NOTE: not all Speedo/ESC's have the same settings, more pro version ESC has more settings then the EZRUN series.

Thank you, Alex. That was a great presentation. I wonder if you have any info on gearings and FDR to maximize performance (batteries and motor) so they run efficiently (not over work but maximum performance). Thank you for info, Alex

Alexander i want to thank you for the information provided mate. It has helped me alot in getting my 4wd buggy dialed in for the carpet racing.

Really informative, thank you! I'm trying to gather more information for ideal settings for RC DRIFTING, and this video has filled in a lot of the blanks for me!

Thanks for the video walk through, what if you have no pre-selectable profiles available in the list

Hej Alexander
Jeg søger parameter for RX8E med Xerun combo xr8 plus g2s 4268D G3 2800kV onRoad-B ved du hvor jeg kan søge.

i followed this method and when i turned my esc back on it goes into sensorless mode even tho its set to sensored. It blinks green when in neutral and my knowledge that means its in sensorless mode and the motor cogs down and it runs like crap. What caused this to happen? i swapped out the sensor wire and the same issue. I dont have another motor to test out or esc. any help would be great as this is disappointing. This Xerun XR10 Pro Stock is less than 2 weeks old, ive only rany 1 pack through it. If the esc blew im going to be pretty disappointed in the brand. Please advise

Thanks Alex that was very helpful 👍🏁🏁🏁

Is there a big difference between the justock gs3 and a pro elite?

Hi can someone tell me for a car without brake and on a carpet race of 24h wich dragbrake setting is the best ,Thanks.

Are you still running the hobbywing xr10 pro g2s?

Hi Alex! Question here.

After trying out your brake settings (both esc and radio) for my stock carpet races, I find it difficult to have a smooth entry on the corner as end up almost stopping fully. I tend to use a either a lot less EPA or a much higher brake frequency instead.

Do you think that this hinders my lap times and I should instead just force myself to learn driving with such a strong brake? Or is this something that just suits one's driving style?

Very helpful, thanks!!!

Great video! Even though it’s three years old, it’s still relevant and informative. It’s the best video on the HobbyWing ESC!

is this setting fit for drifting?

If you change settings is that still considered blinky mode
