    Great to meet you guys.
    Carl, I Asked around and apparently the 1080 ESC solution is to press the OK button twice on the program card when changing a setting. Also the Sanwa mx6 issue can be resolved by ensuring your ESC is set to 6v, as the receiver needs 6v to operate correctly, as it is a High Voltage reciever. Not possible with a 1060 (set at 4.8v), but with a 1080 you can alter the bec voltage setting to 6v. Hope this works for ya and hope to see you again in December.

    Just ordered my first TT02, it's not a popular class in Australia but I didn't want to spend big cash and it's just about having fun for me.
    Eventually I will move up to the more expensive cars.

    Got to splash out and upgrade that old soldering iron to a Hakko FX888D for 155 quid and a yeah racing servo saver if that's allowed to be used. Really want to try some carpet racing I found one it's a bit far but going to take a look you guys have inspired me.

    Great video, can i ask is your 1080 a V1? from memory this issue was discussed on crawler forums a few years ago, it seemed the 1080 didn't like some hotter motors, was causing rigs to flip or roll when coming down from high speed, even missing the braking part and going into reverse when using F/B/R mode. I thought running a tamiya super stock BZ (23T) i might be alright (Procat classic 2S with F/B mode), but no, not long after the same issues started. Rumour was the V2 1080 was meant to fix this, i haven't looked into it yet cheers and best wishes.

    • @PopalongRC

      @@PopalongRC Looking into it yours is the V1, after watching your video again (remembered to give it a like this time) @ 12.33 your 1080 decal reads crawler brushed, same as mine here, the V2 only reads "brushed" also at the capacitor end the v1 under quicrun reads wp crawler brushed where the V2 only reads 1080v2 Brushed. all V2 images used for this comparison were from HW website, other than the decals the v1/v2 is identical it appears. This gives me hope, as the 1080 v2 if sorted would be an awesome esc for the money. Again thanks for all you do Mark and Carl, best wishes AB.
