LRP Firmware w/Windows 10
Had a small issue trying to update the firmware on my LRP flow.
The firmware has only been tested up to Windows 7 which meant I had an issue using Windows 10 where the software wouldn't recognise that the ESC was connected. I had a search about on-line and found a good video about similar issues with Windows 8.1. In short if you have this issue just right click the LRP Fimware update tool icon, go to trouble shoot compatibility, select use recommended settings and it's fixed Really simple but took me a while searching about so hopefully this may save others a bit of time. |

Hi, sorry for late reply but been busy a bit... im not great with explanations but u can find how to do it here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zgOugfLxEdU or here: http://www.download3k.com/articles/H...-Hyper-V-00770 after u have XP working on your Virtual machine (or Hyper V but ive not checked how it works on it only on VM) than just simply install LRP software on XP. There might be an simple issue with USB still not visible so make sure u actually activate your USB LRP driver on virtual machine and than your XP will see LRP driver. Thats it. From that step LRP software should work with no issue. If any problems i can help.

Hi Roger,
When I connect the ESC to the car/computer it keeps saying the bridge drivers are not installed when I have installed them. I have got a solid blue light on the connector which should indicate the bridge drivers are working. To be fair I do love the ESC's as they are nice and smooth but having this hassle of updating the software as a real pain in the rear end |

Thanks for your help, I have done the above and now I get the following message ERROR cannot establish a communication to ESC. Please check connections and restart. I don't get this much hassle of the wife and kids 😂 Cheers Pete |

When u connect the speedo under XP, does system ask for new drivers to be installed? Try install them manually, show XP the path to your LRP drivers, that might help.

Maybe compatibility mode is worth a try. It worked for me with various non-LRP ESCs in the past years, including Speed Passion and Muchmore Racing.
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/...ams-compatible Also, Muchmore have apretty good description for their program. I am not familiar with the LRP one, but this might be helpful. http://www.muchmoreracing.net/support_view.php?sidx=36
