Wondering how you can squeeze some extra performance out of your setup? The new version of the HotWire App lets you view run time Data Logs from any Gen2 or Gen3 Tekin Speed Control, so you can now get immediate feedback on any setup changes that you make.

And it’s still FREE!!

**HotWire 3.0 works over BLE with RX8 Gen2/Gen3, RS Gen2, RS Spec, RSX, RX4 and requires that the ESC have Firmware version 255 or greater installed.

Worked great with the hotwire2. Just got the hotwire 3 for the blue tooth. Was a pai. To pair and when i try to connect keeps droping out and going to demo mode waste of $80 imo.... Update: Got it all sorted out now it works, There was an update on the app so after that its all good now

Great for reviewing performance and getting gearing correct. Tons of adjustment options for applicable speed controls. Only improvement would be save data logs on mobile devices and dark theme. But that's not enough to knock a star off at all. This is a must have for any Tekin owner.

Best app out there for tuning my tekin gen2 and gen3 esc. Quick tip, plug your hotwire in first then into your phone and the app will open automatically.

Bought the Hotwire 2.0 cabling and downloaded the app because let's face it...i was just too damn lazy to do any tuning changes via the ESC itself. I am new to RC's and just raced my 1st race last weekend but this app works flawlessly on my Samsung Galaxy S6 EDGE+ (...unfortunately it does not work on my Galaxy Tablet which runs an older 3.0 or 3.1 or something.) Best part about this app? It requires no special permissions like access to all my nudey pics or phone numbers!!!!!!

I love being able to just plug in the programming cable and go. No battery connection needed. Plus it is so clear and easy to set the settings. Highly recommended.

Turns on fan on esc but screen will only show background screen and categorys nothing below that on my tablet and my galaxy s7 edge. But if I open it then plug in the hotwire it turn on the fan but stays in demo mode shows everything and no adjustments can be made. Need to fix this as I have no access to a pc and bought this to use on Android.

Still getting a good review because it did work flawlessly on my 4 Tekin powered buggies. No issue with the RSX, or RS Pro gen 2, until my phone did an update now it refuses to work. Phone is a Motorola turbo

Works great for setup easily adjusting the ESC. Not sure what I was doing with data collection however I think it might of been a small but if user error. App works perfectly on Galaxy S7 edge. I have both RSX and RS Gen2 ESC and both work fine. Would be nice if the reply when no changes have been made when you hit "apply" it said "no changes made" rather than an error message but other than that it's fine!

I installed HW app to my HTC M8 android 6.0 + HTC M7 android 5.1 + Sony tablet android 4.4.4, all my devices can't connect the ESC with Hotwire 2.0 but only can run DEMO mode. Is the Hotwire 2.0 and this firmware not supported all my devices or android versions? Please help!
