You have to plug in the esc to the box, add a rx pack to power the box and plug in your lipos to power the esc.

The setting dr.wayne said will be perfect

It wouldn't read the esc, i tried like 10 times, so i decided to make you guys a video to show you exactly what it was doing and i'm literally filming it and when i plug in the 6v battery it friggin shows up as swordfish 240 and i programmed everything in! LOL.

I did as drwayne said, and for the other things i did soft cutoff, standard start, soft brake, i think that was it.

So you got it right?
Get the USB linker.
I have this ESC and with the USB linker it is easier than Castle ( well still have no data logger but the new version of it will have it )

yes got it the Box worked like a charm once it finally recognized the esc! my run was a total nightmare though, but thats another topic, literally. check the build section, this esc might just be toast now after being submerged for 30mins.
