Hey all, recently got a Used-great conditiong Losi 6.5t combo off guy off here. When got it-Tested it worked fine.. last night I installed the latest update. And finally got it to link to com-.. no idea how.. and tried it tonight.. and nothing.. but solid yellow light on the ESC. Steering works.. but there is no throttle break... any ideas.. I know there have been usses with the updates.. so Im hoping I dont have to send it back or something.. and tried the rx in another car and works fine. So its 1 or 2 things, I need to try and rebing -But need my bind plug which isnt with me.. or its the esc= foockes.. anyone know.. Im hoping it just need to be bind... then redone. But why after upating it would it unbind itself.. very confuzed. And annoyed as was going to take my new b44 to PDA today.. but that idea is now out of the window..
P.S. Sorry in advance for really poor spelling/grammar its late im tired and fed up.. Please help! |

Jamie, do you have the name of the file you tried to update to? Just to check it's the right one for that model?

Yea But im not sure I can afford to drive 1hr+ to unfortunately watch or get very little run time. If you understand me, If someone will have a spektrum dongle So I can rebind it then maybe.. but unless it can be fixed.. I think I will have to sta tbh.. and do Uni work.. Its really annoying as it had take me soo long to finally get it to confirm the esc was there on the pc interface. And now It wont find it at all.. driving me nuts.. Yea it was the one of the losi webby for 1/10th esc ect.. I hope its just a bind issue... but have a bad fealling its dead.. like somw others that the yellow light come on.. and steering worked

Just thinking if so I could send the old firmware file to you, and you could see if it would load back in? |

If the steering is working the TX & RX are bound together
![]() Are you sure it was the sensored esc firmware? There is an un-sensored version to that I think might screw it up if you install that. G

Hi, when you connect it to PC does it show both green lights?
Have you been to Losi's site to update the firmware? I'll be back home in about 1hour if you want to pop round you can. Phone or text me |

Um, well I only just got it to find the esc when it worked.. and tried it a few times since -Updating it.. and it wont.. but it toke me a while to do last time..
Yea... that was my concern.. that its all bind up. But I did, try once it didnt work to hokd down the button and switch it on to rebind it. But, im bit stuck.. as I cant really see anyway to reslove it either get it to link to pc.. or something..

Pretty sure once you have updated the firmware you need to reset to factory settings via a laptop. Have you done this?

Theres obviously an issue with the latest update, it can freeze the esc and requires sending back to horizon for repair/replacement.
See other thread? So if at all possible 'Do Not Update' until Losi get it sorted ! |

Yea I know it needs sending back, but I emailed them asking as mine was brought off a user off here. only used few times and brought in june time.. and was seeing what they would say. As doubt they would be keen as its 2nd hand.. but no reply..

Guys, just wanna say I'm the guy who sold Jamie the system, and as he's been so understanding just wanna say on here, if you don't get sorted by horizon I'll give you a 100% refund and pay for postage for you to send it back to me, I'm gutted you've not had the chance to use it!

The phone was better as I said....they were looking for proff of purchase etc, as 2nd user you wont have that. But I explalined the my ESC was fine until their update, thats just simple to understand. The fatal update is down to them whoever bought the esc first?
When I put that to them, they said right away to send it them. Theres obviously an issue that needs sorting here and pretty quickly too. |

Replacement speedo arrived this morning, brand new complete with all ancilliaries.
I called Horizon/Losi and spoke to the service dept to get some kind of 'official' reply to the problem. They tell me that all new speedos and relatively recent models come with the latest firmware update already applied, your version of the firmware can be verified from the Losi application screen. So if you are a current firmware user, DO NOT UPDATE for now! Thats from Losi service dept ! So I would leave things alone unless strictly neccessary, or until a newer update is available, by which time I would hope that this bug is fixed? |
