Sanwa uses there new (SSL)Sanwa Synchronized Link function to tune and control there esc and gyro direct from either the M12 or MT4s, a really cool feature which doesn't make your job tedious. In order for the SSL system to take effect and to be able control the gyro and tune the ESC, including the Rev Limiter (TYPE D ONLY), theres a few things we need to do.
THESE STEPS ARE FROM MY MT4s
STEP 1:
You need to plug your electronics into the receiver in this particular way.
BATT: ESC wire
CH1: Servo/Gyro wire
CH4: SGS-01D single wire
The ESC connected to BATT and single wire connected to CH4 are the active SSL ports on the rx.

ON YOUR REMOTE:
STEP 2:
Go to <SYSTEM> <BIND>
Here you'll need to change the bind settings for each option and then bind or re-bind your tx with the rx, these settings activate SSL in order for you to make use of the AUXILIARY CODES.(explained later)
[RF MODE]: FH4T
[ST]: SSR
[TH]: SSR
[A1]: NOR
[A2]: SHR
STEP 3:
After you've binded the remote to the receiver following the first 2 steps, you now need to go through the first 4 programming modes manually. Found on page 3 of the manual.

Blue LED: Indicates the mode that your in.
Red LED: Indicates the value of each mode.
STEP 4:
Go to <SYSTEM> <AUX TYPE>
Now you need to change your AUX TYPE for AUX1 and AUX2 to CODE AUX. Changing your AUX TYPE to AUXILIARY CODES is how SSL will take effect to tune your ESC and control your gyro
STEP 5:
Go to <AUX1> and <AUX2>
Here is where all the magic of the ESC programming goes on, you can change the names of each option and you can now tune your ESC at any moments notice via your remote. There are some initial settings for the ESC that need to be done, but all of that is on the english version of the VORTEX ZERO at Airtronics.

A1CODE1: FULL BRAKE RATE
A1CODE2: DRAG BRAKE
A1CODE3: FEEL
A1CODE4: GRAD BRAKE FEEL
A1CODE5: BRAKE FEEL
(IF DONE CORRECTLY YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO HAVE FULL USE OF YOUR GYRO IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE REV LIMITER, BOOST, POWER MODES)
A2CODE1: BOOST/TIMING ADVANCE
A2CODE2: REV LIMITER (use negative increments)
A2CODE3: POWER MODE
A2CODE4: GYRO GAIN
A2CODE5: MOTION CONTROL (servo speed and sensitivity)
And that concludes my GUIDE to setting up your SANWA electronics
I hope this helps!!
Does this work with non sanwa gyros ?
ReplyDeleteHi Swerv i'm having issues getting the SSL to work on my mt4s. I'm running the same settings as above but with the rx-482. Would you know if that would have an impact on the rev limiter on my super vortex type d?
ReplyDeleteHi Sasha,
DeleteThe SSL function is not going to be active if you are using the RX-482, you'll need the RX-472 to have full control of this function.
Hi SwerV, the oddest thing happened. I went back to it a day after with the rx482 which has the SSL function and everything works fine. Been adjusting the settings now for a week or so and everything works fine. Not sure what the initial issue was. Appreciate the quick response though! :)
ReplyDeleteslt j'ai des probleme pour avoir le controle avec le rx482 commnt a tu fait merci j'ai une m12s rs merci d'avance
DeleteHi SwerV, Do you know what is max level for AUX2 Code 4 & 5? what is different between positive and negative? Please help!!!
ReplyDeleteCode4 Positive values, servo control takes priority over user input.
DeleteCode4 Negative values, user input takes priority over servo input.
Code5 positive values, the steering servo's transit speed will be decreased making the car less reactive to steering control inputs.
Code5 negative values, basically does the opposite. Speeds up transit speed.
Hi SwervV, i have a MT4S. same Rx-482 with Sasha. so my question is does this work with NON-Sanwa gyros?
ReplyDeleteAs far as i know, Yes and No. You have to use either AUX1 or AUX2 in STEP mode instead of CODE for the aux-channel that you plug your NON-Sanwa gyro in to, and miss out on the features that your chosen aux-channel would otherwise give you.
DeleteHere is a comment i just found on facebook. Haven't tried this myself yet.
Delete"It will work, but takes some effort each time you turn it on.
I have my gyro gain on aux 2. When I turn my car on I set Aux 2 to Code and it puts the settings into the ESC. (SV Plus Type D in my case) Then I put aux 2 back in step mode to get the gyro working properly. It's a bit of a PITA, but works.
If you want to change ESC settings you have to switch back to code mode, but the gyro goes to 100% gain until you switch back to step mode."
hi sir! what is single wire, show me please and where connect?
ReplyDeletehi sir! what is single wire, show me please and where connect?
ReplyDeleteAny youtube tutorials ?
ReplyDeletehi... im using SV PLUS Type D.. but i can't activate the turbo or rev limiter... im using Racing Performer motor 10,5.. with 0 timing... in the programing mode there is a timing advance... it should be enable or disable.. ??
ReplyDeleteYou have to manually use the buttons on the esc to set boost on before you will be able to activate the rev limit or turno
Deletehi I have set it all up as above but cant get my sterring or gyro to work why what am I doing wrong
ReplyDeleteNeed to pick turbo or rev limiter, by setting it to positive or negative values. You also need to enable boost/turbo w the programming button after you disable ssl.
ReplyDeleteIf you switch from aux to step, it loses the settings. you can store them w a 4 second press on the button to disable ssl (which stores the settings).
Great writeup, I'm going to change the names right meow
Will it work with my M11X and RX-451R?

My servo its not sanwa mine is savox 1251 how i can program my gyro sanwa wiht this servo to the transmitter.
ReplyDeletei just bought sanwa super vortex type-d esc and sgs-01d gyro, can i use different brand of servo like savox? or if it is better with sanwa servo, which type is best? cheers.
ReplyDeleteIn M12 the configurations are diferent
ReplyDeleteAUX 1 CODE 1 IS NOT BRAKE RATE ITS THROTTLE RESOLUTION, NO? AND AUX 1 CODE 3 IS DRIVE FEEL NOT JUST FEEL.
ReplyDeleteANY MORE NEWS WITH NON SANWA GYRO, I HAVE SEEN IT WORKING USING THE DIAL ON AN MT-S AND STILL FULL CODE FUNCTION (THIS WAS ON SV TYPE D WITH INBUILT RECEIVER) BUT COULD NOT WORK OUT HOW, NEITHER COULD THE OWNER!!
Does anyone know where I could find a setup sheet with other drifters common settings for all the SSL codes? I'm having trouble finding the right feeling with the SVD2.
ReplyDeleteHi, i've turn the gimmick mode ON and the turbo boost also working properly, but the rev limiter doesn't work, i can access the rev limiter menu in code10 aux2, I've change the value from -1 to -19, and even use positive value, still the rev limiter doesn't work. What step did i miss?
