www.speedpassion.net and they've got Tom's etc. listed

I've installed the latest MOD software and also found boost settings on there too.

Mmm see what you mean, non of Lee's set-ups on there.

You need a special box for this right, you can't use the supplied programming box to uplift the firmware?

Do you then need to use the special box to access the extra boost settings, as my programming boxes only go to option 10 (I believe the boost settings are 11+)?

Yes you do need a special programming box

You need the USB programing box to do firmware updates. Once the update is in place then the basic LED boxes will pick up all the options.

I'm still finding 528MOD the best to be honest. Some creative use of the "boost" settings to give a smooth throttle curve on the 2wd but not really played with it much on the 4wd ... MAKE SURE YOU DON'T GO TOO CRAZY ON OVERALL TIMING ON A MOD MOTOR OR YOU WILL KILL IT!!

Look at that but currently back with the previous mod version. Need to get the car set-up first before worrying about boost levels! Also with the current heat wave I'll stick with what I know for the moment. Plus I'll be having HPI motors inbound next week, but still with the SP ESCs

Mine are actually running cooler "boosted" as for the majority of the time they are running LESS timing than on the fixed setting .... that is assuming you don't go everywhere flat out of course.

It's running stock software. I tried it, but wasn't getting what I wanted. More testing required. Then I say the mod version had the options too now.
