More help needed please for a newcomer to the Brushless world!


After receiving (and following) a lot of very useful guidance and advice from this forum, I have now completed the twin brushless motor installation in my 1/24 scale MTB but the problem is that I have come to a grinding halt with attempting to programme the Robbe speed controller. I have carefully followed the instruction manual for the Roxxy 940-6 but seem unable to get anywhere beyond the initial start up sequence of beeps followed by a steady one beep per second. Moving the throttle stick from "forward" to "stop", pausing several seconds then "forward" and " back" rapidly as per the instructions has no effect whatsoever and nor has any of the many variations of this procedure which  I have tried. All I can get is a steady "one beep per second".


Please, please, please point me in the right direction.

I bought the programming card once, since I always had problems with proper programming (but those problems were mainly caused by myself  )
But anyways it should work.

I believe that you set the ESC into Air mode, if you then try to set the "stop" position in the middle it won´t work, since the ESC assumes that "stop" must be at "stick full backwards".
That constant beeping is caused by the ESC being at "parameter 1" .

So probabaly you should try to program the stick positions first before trying to change other parameters.
Btw,  if I remember correctly you only need "forward" and "stop" position to programm it.
"back" is not necessary.

Thanks Tobias. You are correct in saying that I only need "forward" and "stop" positions for programming - sorry that I did not make this clear in my previous post. My problem is that I can't get beyond parameter 1. I would buy a programming card if one was available but since Robbe appear to have ceased trading this is proving to be difficult.

I've just ordered a Robbe Roxxy V2 programmer from Germany so hopefully this will solve the problem!

It definetly will 
If you once used it, you will not believe how awful it was programming it with the Tx 

Still believe that learning the correct stick positions again (and maybe stop position at full backwards), would have solved it anyways.
