I use esc 880 but it only runs when pulling the throttle backwards, but when pulling the accelerator forward, it can't run. And the 860 can't run in any direction even though the goods are new.
So this maybe a dumb question but I’m just getting into the SCT/racing genre of RC. Coming from comp rock crawling genre. So does the OTA WIFI module stay plugged into the vehicle or is it removed and only hooked up and check after runs/ change settings etc.?
Are there hardware improvements on this ESC vs the older G2 and the XR8 Plus SCT? i want to use it for drag racing and im interested to see what you think
So just picked an xr8 g3 from amain for my Ebuugy. Soldered it up and it’s inconsistent. Beeps green and then goes red flashing beeping/motor clicks. Sometimes it will go green and be normal. Sometimes it won’t stop clicking. Also it won’t calibrate. Just beeps red/motor clicks. Any ideas?
@@markakkerman-uc5li i sent the original one back. HW sent me a new one. Same problem. It wasn’t able to calibrate the brake. So I took my radio m17 and turned the brake up to 150% and it calibrated. So weird. Then everything was normal.there is definitely a bad batch of those out there or at least at Amain.
Good day RC friends, does anyone know why I use 3s with this hobbywing 2200kv combo and an XR8PRO ESC Are the batteries lasting 3 minutes? My batteries are 8000mah 80c 3s but they last 3 minutes or less. Is the ESC being protected from something? The motor says in the manual that it is 2 to 6s. and the ESC from 2 to 4s But with 3s batteries I have not been able to make the batteries last more than 3 minutes. if someone could help me
Programming issues.. won't load parameters. I have a multifunction lcd fully updated and the wifi module. Both as updated as they can be.. neither will connect to this ESC? They work w/ the last two versions just fine.. so it's not wires etc.. it just won't connect or load parameters. Thanks!
Hello, using the later generation ESCs the "G2" LCD Box (Blue letter and USB C plug), or the OTA are needed. The older LCD Box with the micro usb, or the Wifi Express, won't work with the latest releases of ESC's unfortunately. There are some size and latency issues that cannot be resolved.
Any chance you know why I have full power for a little bit and then slowly lose all power and then eventually it gives no power but I still can turn my servo. I am running 2s with 3600kv motor
Often, loose, dirty, or weak plugs, or adaptors, make this happen, and occasionally using a NIMH battery. Even when the battery is fully charged, a bad connection (or a NIMH) will make the ESC "see" bad voltage and go into safety. Email us for more info - NorthAmerica@hobbywing.com
Kindly I have the program box but I couldn't connect with esc, but I was using the wire provided with the programmer because I don't have the Bluetooth. I made all the updates through the website! Kindly could you assist me ? Please note that my program box is the previous one with white inscription instead of the blue words. It work with the max 6 esc and successfully updated the firmware but couldn't connect with new esc the XR8 g3 Pro
"We also say aluminum the way it's spelled" LOL. Good looking ESC!
EXCELLENT INFO 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙

Any update as to when we'll see a video dedicated to the new brake settings?
What does the esc do if you use a non Hobbywing motor? Can you not use timing?
why doesnt it have built in Bluetooth ? like the ezrun models?
Will we see a version of the xerun g2 that supports 6s?
I want to put this in my 1/8 onroad Serpent 989e. Do you think that's a good choice? Also, what motor should I pair it with for onroad?
Will this run a 3650 size motor as well? I don’t see any specifications for that in the manual.

Same here. Did you find the problem?

I have the same problem.
bought from amain
Can I use a 4s LiHV with this ESC? Thanks
Yes. It will run 2s - 4s
Good to go with either standard and LIHV
I preordered the combo from hobbywingdirect. Any idea when they are releasing?
Extremely Soon. Boxes are "in motion" now.
for some reason my ota is limited to some of the throttle control settings

@@HOBBYWINGOfficial disappointing but thanks for the reply. That wifi express I'm a little surprised by.. especially considering the cost.

Hi, which function is equivalent to the old punch setting? Just got this esc its a bargain price in the uk at the moment. Thanks for the vid.
Throttle Increase Rate.
@HOBBYWINGOfficial do you mean initial throttle force?
