Very detailed explanation of the values, which is incredibly helpful! Thank you for sharing your experience!
Thank you for the positive comment!
You helped an old man set up my crawler, thank you
Glad that I was able to help out. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.
Thank you for the step-by-step review of the crawler settings with this ESC. I appreciate your video so much. I am working on my first RC crawler build-TRX4 Sport. 🌻
Hi Jan. Thanks for the comment. Greatly appreciate it. TRX-4 Sport is a great RC to start the hobby. I have a playlist with easy mods to make it into a great crawler, so check out the following playlist: czcams.com/play/PLdzm4R8gmSJuO6u0smNYbhEulF_6OsNiy.html
Great clear video. Thanks!
Glad to hear. Thanks for checking out my videos!
really appreciate this info! This really helped me understand how to program my 1080 nicely.
Glad to hear. The settings work really good for me, but you should custom taylor to your needs. Use my settings as a basis, and try different things and see what you prefer. Good luck.
Absolutely brilliant! Thank you for that tutorial.
Glad to hear that it helped out. Just keep in mind that the settings are what I am used to. You should experiment and adjust as needed.
Awesome video. Helped a ton. Thank you
You're welcome! And glad to hear it!
thanks for sharing good tips for 1080 esc
You are welcome. Glad to hear that the information is helpful.
Thanks for making a great how-to video. Subbed!
Thank you for the Sub! Much appreciated.
Thank you, just what I was looking for.
Glad I could help!
Excellent advice brother!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you. Great video. 👍
Thank you!
Awesome thanks for the brilliant explanation 👍

감사합니다! Thank you for checking out my channel.
great video!
Thank you very much!
Big Thanks 👍
Thanks for checking out my video and for the comment. Greatly appreciate it.
I'm glad i found this tutotrial.
Thanks.
@@BigSungHobbies i ordered one from banggod with dumborc transmitter. Waited for few days to ship here in U.K. Then i got an email that shipping will be moved because the 1080 is out of stock. 😩
Sorry to hear. Hope it comes through soon.
thanks man!
Thanks for the comment! Glad to hear that it helped out!
Great! thanks!
You bet!
Thanks👍
Welcome 👍
Great video, just found one thing wrong with it. When programming the ESC you do not need to have the transmitter on. When you plug in the program card it cuts power to the receiver so there is no need for the transmitter to be on. Enjoyed you video, keep up the good work. 👍🏻
Ahh good to know! Thanks for the info.
fab thanx
Thanks!
Thanks
You are welcome. The setting works well for me, but use that as basis to try to fine tune it to your liking.
I can't find settings you were going to put in comments? Did I miss something? Great video guess I'll watch it again for settings.
A while back while editing the description, I accidentally deleted the whole description including the write up on the settings, and forgot to retype that in. Thanks for reminding me.
@@BigSungHobbies hi, settings are still missing from description ;)
Very helpfull. Question. I have a very low geared scx 10 ii crawler. Which setting for a smooth, very slow take off with brushed motor? Thanks so much.
The crawler setting on the video works well for me both on my LCG build and other crawlers. Give that a try, and you can try to adjust as needed.
@@BigSungHobbies changed some of my settings to yours...works good so far. I was changing mode 13 a few times after watching your video and Holmes Hobbies video on settings...interesting to see the changes making one change at a time.
@@brianonthego Glad that you are trying out different settings. I would say that's the best way to find out what works for you.
Great vid! Do you run these same settings in your trx4? I just installed mine today on my sport. Ran it on factory settings. Nice esc! I’ll have to adjust the braking. It wanted to roll end over when going down very steep hills whenever I came off the throttle.
HW 1080 is great ESC. And yes, I run the same settings on TRX4 Sport as well as on my Gspeed Element and Element Trailrunner. On Sport, you need a bit finer control then the Element though. One thing if you can check the weight distribution that might also give a bit more insight.
@@BigSungHobbies I weighed the vehicle. 60% front. I was able to use 3mm nylon nuts to fasten the rear shock tower as you suggested so that way I could remove the battery tray. I then mounted a 2200 3s on the front chassis rail. No brass or heavy wheels so total weight is 2660g rtr with 1600g front 1060g rear. I think the more I drive it the better it’ll be. I’ll try your settings. Thanks!
@@micaelacarter4971 2660g is awesome weight for it, and to boot at 60/40. Congrats! The nice thing about HW1080 is so easily programmable. Try a setting and tweak it as you see fit, and find one that works for you.
Wouldn't option 7 and 8 be deactivated anyway in crawler mode? (forward and reverse) as the only braking you have is drag brake so adjusting those settings would have no effect until you put it basher mode (forward/brake/reverse)
You would think so, but they still had it option 7 and 8 selected even in crawler mode. The setting that have worked, so I never really paid further attention to it.
Option 7 and 8 are not deactivated. However, because you have drag brake at 100%, there really is no need to ever use the brake function on your transmitter. I still set mine up as if the esc were being used in a basher so, I don't have to change those settings if I switch vehicles.
Hey big question if u buy the programmer and the esc can u run any motor brushless and brush motors
You have to match the ESC to the type of motor you get. The 1080 ESC will work with all the brushed motors; however, if you get a brushless motor, then you will need to get an ESC that is designed for brushless motor such as Castle Mamba X (or Micro X depending on the vehicle weight), or Castle Sidewinder 4. There are others like Axe brushless that comes in combo package. As for programming, depending on ESC they might come in programmer's card or some even use bluetooth. Hope that answers the question.
I only am able it get 3 dashed lines across the entire thing
Hmm not sure...are the cables connected correctly?
I broke my program card which other card can you recommend me.
I would just pick up a replacement program card or even better borrow one from a friend. You only need to set the settings once.
how to fix when it blinking red?
Try the calibration, and if still having issues, reach out to Hobbywing customer service.
HEY BROTHER,JUST INSTALLED THE HOBBYWING1080 WP ESC,ON MY GEN 8,ALL I Have IS THE REDCAT LIGHTING SETUP KIT,AND A DS3225 25KG SERVO,AFTER ABOUT 25 MINUTES OF TRYING TO TRIM AND STRAIGHTEN OUT GEN8,THE ESC STARTED BLINKING THE LED ON ESC I MEAN, AND I COULDN'T USE GEN8?SERVO MOVED PERFECTLY SIDE TO SIDE,BUT NO FORWARD/REVERSE,BATTERY CHARGED,#14 SETTING ON 1 6V...I SHUT EVERYTHING DOWN 15 MINUTES LATER WAS BACK TO NORMAL,NO BLINKING LED LIGHT???LMK WHAT YOU THINK BUDDY?
Hmmm, I am not sure. The only time I ever had issue was when the steering servo went bad, but I have never ran into your issue. Glad that it came back, but I wonder what could have been the issue.
@@BigSungHobbies NO THE STEERING SERVO NEVER WENT BAD.>I JUST COULDN'T GO FORWARD OR REVERSE,BUT EVERYTHING WAS STILL ON,AND I WAS STILL ABLE TO MOVE TIRES LEFT AND RIGHT? aND THERE WAS A FLASHING RED LIGHT SILENT NO NOISE,BUT FLASHING/BLINKING ETC.>wAS MY #13 P.w.M. TO HIGH?hAD ON 16K?
You didn’t change the settings on ESC, but it is working after shutdown of 15 minutes, so I don’t think that’s it. All of my crawlers are on 16k, and I have not run into the issue. If you press the set button for too long it goes into manual program mode. I wonder if you somehow got into that mode. Maybe email HW customer service to see what they say.
Can I program a hobby wing 1625 ESC with the blue label programmer card thanks
I do not know. Might want to reach out to Hobbywing customer service.
@@BigSungHobbies Do you know who The company is of hobby wing who owns them or do you have a phone number where I can contact them
Simple google search "Hobbywing customer service". www.hobbywingdirect.com/pages/contact-us
Did u have to switch the blue and yellow wires to get it to run correctly?
Some motors are reverse direction. For Element Enduro motor I did not have to swap the wires, but on Titan motors from Traxxas, I believe you have to swap the wires to ensure it works correctly.
@@BigSungHobbies i had to switch my motor wires to get it to run correctly. Hobbywing 1080 with stock reedy motor
Glad to hear that you got it sorted out.
Is the esc supposed to flash while driving? Just installed this in my trx4 sport yesterday and noticed that the LED on the ESC flashes while moving vs staying solid like the traxxas esc. Is this normal??
Truck seems to be operating fine...
When it senses throttle it will flash. Normal. Let me know what you think compared to stock TRX4 ESC.
@@BigSungHobbies Perfect, thank you. I mainly got it for the drag brake, my stock one was almost non existent even in "crawl" mode. If this one works ill be a happy camper...the other settings are just added benefits in my eyes.
Will let you know what i think when i get a good test run on it.
I also like it for drag brake and the programmability. Definitely much better than any stock ESC and reasonably priced too.
How do u put it in to lipo mode bro
Very simple. Select Item 2 and select value 1 which is Lipo. Then select Item 3 for Cutoff Voltage that you desire.
How to set up the cuttoff for 3S battery?
3rd Item is the the Cutoff Voltage: (3) Auto (Medium). I set it at value 3 which is Auto (Medium).
@@BigSungHobbies
Im using LiFePo 3S.
You know what is the volts at Auto Low?
I don’t know the exact number, but I think it was at low end of 3v per cell. Unless you are comp’ing all the time, I would recommend at least Medium setting which I believe is around 3.4v per cell, but don’t quote me on it.
@@BigSungHobbies
Sorry, I forgot to mention.
I'm using LifePo batteries. I can push the cuttoff much lower than a regular lipos.
Then maybe try Low setting and see how that woks. I haven't used LifePo batteries, so I am clueless there :)
I choose 16k on opt 13 to run silent no squeal.
I ran 16k initially then moved to 8k...to my hearing I couldn't hear the difference, so I settled on 8k.
I didn't know that 16k makes the esc run a bit hotter. Thanks I may change it back. Sofar it stays in the 80 to 90° range.
@@WillB.6759 That sounds like a good plan.
What is free wheeling exactly? 🤔
The easiest way to understand is to use a bicycle example. On a Fixie (non-freewheel), as the wheels roll, the pedals will also turn. Basically the gear is engaged at all times. On a regular bike with freewheel, you can cruise and rest your legs as the pedals will stay stationary. This applies to RC cars as well. For regular vehicles, the recommendation is to disable this function. With it disabled, your vehicle can have quick acceleration Since the gear is engaged, it translates to immediate response to your throttle. For a crawler (simulation model), the recommendation is to enable freewheel. With it enabled, your
crawler can have better linearity during a low-speed running and also less heat.
@@BigSungHobbies thanks! hmm but with drag brake enabled (powered by the motor) I don't see how this setting can be enabled anyway, correct?
I am not the best person to answer your questions as I am not too techy. I believe drag brake is applied when you let go of throttle. The freewheel seem to apply when you pull on the throttle on the start up. Slightly different scenario as I understand it. You can always test both, freewheel enabled vs. disabled, and see the difference yourself.
Freewheeling on this esc is using a Mosfet to act as freewheeling diode. It allows drag brake to be active while using throttle. Active drag, synchronous rectification, on throttle drag, there are a few other names. For crawling, turn on freewheeling
Congratulations you read the introductions word for word like we all can do. This is 9 minutes of my life that I will never get back. Awesome job 👍
@Ken Design Thank you very much for your comment. I appreciate it that you took time to provide a feedback. I just want to be clear that the crawler settings are slightly different than the default values in the manual. I started with default value as well and then adjusted to my style of driving and provide reasons as to why I chose them. I hope you found that information helpful. I have used this setting for over two years including on my LCG Cheater Rig plus on 5 other rigs, and I find that it works well for my style of driving.
