Not a problem but a hastle. Make sure all the end points are 100 percent then go real slow to reverse. That's where we always go wrong in our club. For what ever reason we can never get past reverse.

So did you manage to program it if you never got past reverse?

i'm now a little confused by your answer....lol

Yes it worked. Took multiple tries. When it did finally work I went real slow to reverse. Don't know if that was the trick or just got lucky. Is that is what's happening to you? It won't recognize reverse?

Then the solution is dumb-simple - get the Castle Link!

The instructions to set up the esc with the tx are very poor....beep this beep that what the f.
looks like you have to use a pc or go mental.
now i have to buy the link thing and use the pc at work.
Is it just a matter of D/L the software and plugging the thing in,or do i have to go into the control panel and change ports?
My cheap asian esc's have stand alone program cards.sigh
