Swordfish ESC's now instock

[Steven Vaccaro]

ok I just attemped the instructions on the first video...

ok everything in device manager works fine and I got the y cable working but I have no swordfish software to open...is that what the disk is for?....I havnt tried the disc because its to small to run in my pc drive

The disk is whats needed to make everything work, without loading the software there isnt anything to program. I will work on uploading the software online.

man aint it the truth...theres nothing worse than buying one of the worlds leading esc's (castle) and have it blow up in your face on the first try

I have high hopes for these 240hv esc's...they are awesome looking and have water cooling and are a very nice size considering how powerfull they are

my two will get the acid test running each one on 12s2p

I shoved my disk into my laptop and it took the program just fine bustit..i did have to update drivers for my com ports but i got through it and was able to program it....as far as power up i followed your video steven but after i release the trigger on my dx2 radio it continues to beep and will not leave the programming mode...any ideas steven?..the fish has not turned my neu 1527 yet but i am close...

I had the same problem at first. Each step has to be done exactly.

What is the uart to com port number?
Does the screen update when you plug in the rx wire to the usb?
Is the USB link showing a red light?

Check and make sure the com port is not being used by something else. The usb port powers the esc, so make sure you don't have batteries plugged into the esc. Lastly post a picture of the layout so we can see if there is anything else you maybe overlooking.

Thats happened to me a few times. You are probably not letting go quick enough. I'm not sure if this could be the case, but try adjusting the throttle trims. Also once the 4th long beep happens dont touch anything until it stops beeping.

I JUST GOT IT TO TURN...I HAD MY BRAKE PROGRAMMED FOR OFF BUT YET I SET MY RADIO FOR FULL BRAKE AND IT WILL THROTTLE UP...TOO STRANGE..I AM NOT GOING TO TOUCH ANYTHING! I CAN FINALLY TRY ANOTHER BOAT YAY

comm4. Red light is on. Updates when I plug in the usb adapter, and when I plug the rx wire harness into the usb adapter. Turn on the switch, select comm port 4 and open, then hit connect. no connection still.

Will do Steven, Thanks for all the help man. I feel like I'm being a pain in your arse.

Do you have to do this proceedure every time you power up?..it seems that way or else it keeps on beeping into different tones
