Default SKYRC Toro 160A

I've just purchased a SKYRC Toro 160A esc and matching program box.

Got the speedo all wired up and calibrated and running fine.

Plugged the program box in, go to ESC setup and get a "Connection Failed" message.

any ideas on a fix?

cheers, Chris.

You need to update the firmware on the programme box

Try plugging the program box into the esc port using the supplied cable. Rather than the esc to receiver cable.

You need to go to the skyrc website and download the updated firmware and then plug your programme box into your computer using a USB and micro ubs cable. I had the same problem and this fixed it.
