Good luck getting that fixed I've been trying to get a fix for my customers for over 4 months and still nothing from Tekin. They just keep saying "we're coming out with a fix real soon" and 4 months later still nothing

Just to clarify, I'm very pleased with all of my Tekin products. Cost is good and performance is top notch. Overall a great company.

I guessing you want your drag brake turned up?

There is a fix do you have a hotwire to update your speed control? if so I can or any local Tekin Team driver can send you the fix thru a update for your hotwire or contact Tekin they will get you in contact with a local driver who can help you
let me know

It'd be nice to have a fix without having to know someone

Not to mention if they have a fix and we all know it works then what is taking so long to get it out to the general public?

I have stopped selling the B1r for this exact reason. I know a bunch of guys that love the size but a crawler with 1/3 the power in revers just doesn't work.

Still waiting.

Yea.... what's the scoop? I need "The Fix". Tired of trying to upright my rig with only 1/4 revers throtle.

They released a firmware a month or so ago. All of the B1r's I have in stock were shipped from Tekin with the new firmware as well.

Best bet is to find somebody with the hotwire, or buy one. If you contact tekin you may even be able to send it in for a reflash, or they may send you the new firmware.
