Programmers
« on: October 16, 2020, 08:52:18 AM »
Just enquiring as to whats a good programmer for all electric systems? Do you need different ones for the variety of esc’s out there? Badass esc, rsm’s versions, etc
Thanks

You need programmers that match your escs and possibly timers. Each manufacturer has their own.
(The fun starts later, when you have an ESC and try to find the matching programmer in your pile of them :) )

If you get Igor's system and the matching ESC then the Jeti box he also sells works with both.

Although programming cards make life a lot easier, all of the different esc’s I have used were capable of programming using the throttle stick on a RC transmitter/receiver. For only a few bucks a simpler option is to use a servo tester. I recommend everyone should have one of these for testing and troubleshooting anyway. You may not have access to all of the programming functions on the fancy expensive esc’s. The only challenge is most times the instructions are written in cryptic chinglish.

Tim Wescott made the TUT programmable with the Jeti box, so one box works for the whole TUT-Igor-Spin system.
