Is there an esc program card for the blx100?

Do any program cards work for the blx100 at all?

I'm pretty sure they don't unfortunately. They're essentially HW MAX8 ESCs but flashed with their own software

I think @razorrc made a video a while back. If my memory serves me right, he simply used a basic hobbywing card and it worked fine.

Yup, @razorrc says and I have confirmed that the Hobbywing program card works

You don't really need one. You can program all the settings on the ESC using the set button. It may be a little confusing at first, but it's really simple once you understand it. Here is the manual explanation and a video that shows you how to change punch.

In the manual you'll see there are 5 Variables:
1. Low Voltage Cut-Off Threshold
2. Punch
3. Brake Strength
4. Running Mode
5. Motor Rotation

In the video, he changes the punch, the #2 variable. So you hold down the set button until you get 2 green beeps, which corresponds with the #2 variable, Punch. Once you get 2 green beeps, let go of the set button. You can now change your Punch. Press the set button to change the punch setting. There are 5 settings available. Each time you press it, the setting will change. The number of red beeps tells you the setting. Turn the ESC off once you have it set at the desired setting.

If you wanted to set brake, you would hold down the set button until you get 3 green beeps, corresponding with the #3 variable, Brake. Then set the brake setting anywhere between 1 and 7.

When a variable setting is at 1, you will get 1 short red beep. Setting 2, 2 short red beeps, etc. But you should know that setting 5 will be a long sustained beep. Setting 6 will be a long sustained beep followed by one short beep.

In the video, he changes the punch. So you hold down the set button until you get 2 green beeps, which corresponds with the 2nd variable, Punch. Then he sets the punch to level 5.

If you wanted to set brake, you would hold down the set button until you get 3 green beeps, corresponding with the 3rd variable, Brake. Then set the brake level anywhere between 1 and 7.

When the level is set at 1, you will get 1 short beep. Level 2, 2 short red beeps, etc. But you should know that level 5 will be a long sustained beep. Level 6 will be a long sustained beep followed by one short beep.

Thank you very much! I'll give it a shot.

After seeing the post with the video, I remembered that I was actually thinking of updating software - nothing to do with the program card. Sorry for the misinformation!

No problem! It can happen.
