Do you have Running Mode set to Option 3 (FWD/REV)?

A dim light bulb went off in my dark brain this morning.

For anybody having issues with the CrawlMaster drag brake or holding, read what a rep from Holmes Hobbies told me:

"The benefit of advancing your motor's timing depends on the degree of advancement. 6° will give you better brush wear and potentially longer brush life. 12° will give you more powerful torque, but that's where it begins to have a noticeable effect on the brake (it will be less powerful). Generally, advancing the timing retards the reverse throttle as a consequence."

So if you're having problems with hill holding, decrease your timing.

I ordered one up after watching you guys rave about them for the past couple months. Thanks for posting so much about them. Plus, now I know who to bother if/when I run into an issue lol.

When I posted up that my 1080 did not hold the rig on a incline, about 2 weeks ago, I immediately switched to the rc4wd 45t then to a 35t and it has worked flawlessly in that time.

Reading Jato's post, I just dbl checked my HH 13T and its set at 12 deg. So I will mount it up, set it at 6 deg, then take it out for a run this weekend and see what happens/ set a 0 if need be.

When I turn on my crawler, I get a flashing ref light from my hobbywing, what is the problem?
Thanks

That's huge for HobbyWing. It's about time they get their name out there.

[Ditchrat]

looks like the 1060 also.

Try re-calibrating it to the transmitter

[CoolRunning]

Hold the setup button whilst turning on the big button.

Then when it beeps hit it again once. It'll play a noise to say it's in calibration mode.

Hit it again with the TX throttle position at centre - 1 beep

Hit again with the TX throttle at max forwards - 2 beeps

Hit again with the TX throttle at max reverse - 3 beeps.

Now turn it off...then on and you're good to go with the stock config.

Simples...rrrtt (it's an Aussie ad).

You can turn off the drag brake no problem with it.

Or just order from Amain and get $1.99 shipping (even to myself in Canada), plus spend another 8 bucks and they usually have a 5 off 50 code. I usually use that little top up for shims, oils, etc. Get $8 worth of stuff for another $3.

Wait, why aren't you ordering direct from HW? Free shipping!

[ElChupacabra]

eBay has them for $35 free shipping from a few vendors typically. It's about the cheapest way I've found to get them as much as I'd prefer to support a shop that supports the hobby more.

Whenever I get a chance to buy direct from the manufacturer (unless cost prohibitive) I do. That way you know you have the best chance at direct support and warranty.

So I finally ran this ESC in my 2.2 Shafty in a comp last weekend. It held it's own and then some. No issues with servo power set at 7.4v to a Hitec 7955 (being replaced with a 7950 shortly). No issues when running WOT forward and reverse to flip a turtle situation. Got stuck in a couple binds and the ESC stayed really cold. Ambient temp was about 55 and rainy. Overall I'm very happy with its performance and I'll continue to use it in this rig the rest of the season hopefully. Just wanted to check back in. Didn't see too many people trying to run a 2.2 comp truck with this ESC. Seemed like mostly scalers.

Pics for attention...

[Hardcoretam]

That's awesome!

I knew for scalers and trail rigs they were more than enough but was curious to see how they would cope in a competative setting

Running it in a comp crawler? Impressive! I'm glad to hear it did well. How did you do in the comp? I was almost at St Pete's that day if that's the comp you're referring to.

Yeah St Pete's with EPARCRC. It was a garbage day with the weather but we stuck it out. I came in last in Pro and Sporty but that was because of both my trucks having several mechanical failures. I built both trucks from scratch over the winter and never took either one for any run time until that day. I knew I'd break lots of stuff. I literally never drove either truck before course 1 that day. When the trucks were running I was doing well and so were the rigs.
