Always Ran Lrp This Was First Time Where It Shut Off Two Times In Main===i Run Li-po==21.5===been Hearing Some Guy's Saying That Before But I Was Ok Now It Happened==any One Got Any Answers===dom This weekend i the same problem. That speedo never ever had any troubles .Now it cost me a new 08 taker chassis . Not happy Thanks

Dom all I did was turn it off then back on. It was weird, I had to do the same think to Boylans one night at Jacksonville. I would just send it back to be safe.

I had the same trouble with my Sphere Competition TC Spec this past weekend i was running 4.5 with 4 cell no lipo......... i was even running the fan and a reciever bat as well.It was only about 2 and half min into the run.
I was running it at Freedies on the asphalt track.

DOM-19,
I had the same proplem and was told to shutoff the throttle fail safe in the radio. It worked for me. Another way to stop the problem is to put a receiver pack in the car.

I was runnin a receiver pack and i still shut down like i said 2 and half min into the run......Dead just like someone shut the power off.

Make sure you turn the "Auto battery" feature off. You want the first LED to blink 2 times. This sets it to "Competition Mode" and you can run any battery and it does not have a voltage cutt off. In Auto mode it is "supposed" to select the battery type by voltage but it does not always work right.

Thanks Eric I Will Look Into That I Think I Have It Like That ==will Ck. It Out?? Well I Guess You Moved Back Home Again==thanks==dom

Eric One More Question ==even If I'm Running Li-po==make It Two Blinks?????

nooooooooo

the one blink is lipo mode the esc will shut down when the pack voltage reaches a certain point..

2 blinks is nimh mode

you will not run more than 2 laps in lipo made when using 4 cell nimh packs....

billy bruce sent all his lrp esc's back for the same issues..

tom pedano has sent his back and they still do the same thing?

i have owned two lrp's and they work flawless.....go figure?

Bill, Eric Is Saying Take It Out Of Li-po Mode & Run It In Ni-mh Value One Because Li-po Mode Seems To Be Not Electricly Good All Time ==talked To Lrp Today Three Times & He Told Me I Could Run Li-po's In Value Two As Long You Dont Let Voltage Run Out Which I Never Do==he Also Said He Never Heard Of This Problem ???? Dom

Put Another Lrp In, This Time I Took The Capacitor That I Had Shoo-gooed To Top Of Lrp Off ===will See What Happens????==dom

That's why I love orange!! Big Blue has no customer support. 2 new ones right of package that did not work. They never replaced them under warranty!!!! Been running orange since the start of brushless.

Ken, If This Happens Once More I Will Crush These Lrp's In A Vise & Go Orange==dom

Does anyone know why this is happening? I've watched several 10.5 races where the leader running a lrp loses because it shuts down.

Mine shut down in a 21.5 lipo car. Of course everyone said it was the Spectrum. Took the reciever out and ran it all day in a 13.5 4 cell car. no problems... Go figure
I'm thinking there is something wrong with the bec in the lrp??

i recently purchased an lrp sphere 07 speed control and i am running 17.5 10th scale class and was wondering what settings should my speed control set at to be at optimum performance.

lol lol just had my first run in with LRP customerservice what a joke!

I Know That There Where At Least Two More Shut Downs This Past Weekend At Strickland In Daytona Bch Florida In The 17.5 Lipo A Main.. And It Happened To Two Of The Front Runners....

mine costed me 2 motors

Go Novak!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yep u wont ever catch me with a lrp product again after my conversation with mr personality customerservice tech guy. to him and lrp middle finger salute!

Dont always assume it's the speedo.I had a novak motor that was cutting out burn up one lrp.Put in a second lrp it started cutting out again swapped motors no problem since.:freak:

its the speedo it will get the motor hot just settin on the bench put a borrowed speedo in it on same motor and cured it

Houston we have a problem!!!!
I have had repeated LRP Speedo shut downs over the last year. I have personally sent 7 ESC’s in for repair. They said 3 of them had no problems, and 4 of them were exchanged for new ones at around $110.00ea. So I installed a new one and went racing the next weekend. Even the new one shuts down for no reason. LRP then told me that the Futaba Fasst system was to blame and that adding a capacitor to the receiver may help. So I did that, it did help, but did not fix the problem. Tried a receiver pack, still no good. So I removed the Fasst system and installed the trusty old Futaba PCM receiver along with another new ESC. Still no luck, it even shuts down with the PCM. I am sorry but PCM has been around since when? The 80’s? How on earth then can it be a receiver problem? If you can’t even build an ESC to work with the old PCM, then maybe you should not be making them at all! LRP refuses to admit that it has a problem, and dealing with them and their rep’s is nothing short of a joke!!!! I have even had them get very mad at me for merely mentioning the fact that they might have a problem, even though I was only trying to help and I was trying very hard to be as tactful and as polite as possible. Obviously they are not interested in improving their product. It seems that the only thing that they what to do is point fingers, to hope that somebody else fixes it, and then to stick their head in the sand and hope that this problem just simply goes away. Well guess what, it will fix itself, because less and less racers are using LRP in oval racing, just like Custom Works here in Florida, it’s a dying breed.
To date I have changed all of the electronics in my car, many times, and the only common thing left is the LRP ESC.
This past weekend I know of 3 others that also had problems.
I am so glad that I did not buy the newest LRP version, as it seems to be having a multitude of problems.
So now I am finished with LRP after 8 years of use, and now the search for a replace ESC starts. This is very difficult because I have not been impressed with any of the current ESC’s available today!

donnie i have a tekin pro u can try...lmk

Well at least LRP tried to repair it. I stopped buying there stuffwhen the quantum2 was new. I had 2 DOA. Not covered under warranty either. The Q2's never saw the track. I have been orange ever since.

Wish i never bought one.. The Spere TC is junk they repaired it under warrenty now it's waiting at UPS for me to pick it up. They sent it requiring a signature in person you think it was made of gold for delivery.. Gone back to all Orange and not going back..

I have personally only had one problem with a lrp quantum2(one month old) it went up in flames while racing. They told me to send them 100.00 dollars and that was before there "limited lifetime warranty". I since have a tekin small compaq and has been enjoyable.
