Question for those who have used the Viper VX10

[DangerCow]

I currently have a DEX210 with the Tekin RSPro, and hate the reverse delay soooo much (yes, I use reverse as a back-marking club racer). I am building a DEX410 and need electronics for it, and wondering if the VX10 reverse has less of a delay? My other option is the Orion something-or-other.

Thanks for the insight!

I have a VTX10R but don't have reverse enabled as it's not allowed when racing in the UK, but I'll try it this weekend and let you know what the delay is. But I think you'll find nearly all ESC's will have a delay for reverse.

I understand that all have a delay, but the RSPro one is quite long at times, and others it kicks in a lot sooner. Two of us have the same ESC at my local track and both have the same problem - quite annoying vs others I've used (Novak and Castle).

Thanks for the effort in checking it out!

You can run the rspro in non-delayed reverse mode. I run my RS in gt12 supastox with that, and it's fine. Delayed mode is frustrating, if you are too quick to hit reverse, it starts the delay counter again. I just run my rs products in forward only, and try not to crash ;)

Ya I'm worried about running it without the delay though, hate to eat all those gears up.
