Thanks Brett. Appreciate you letting us know about new products. 👍
I've been wanting one of these for my Trx4 79 Bronco for a WHILE now. I just ordered an ESS Dual from you guys this morning. Now I have the GRC interior, Pro-Scale lighting and this.
I love the "kid with a new toy" smirk :D
Best video on the ESS sound kits on the internet
Thanks for making video about differences ! SENSE INNOVATIONS ESS One Plus vs SENSE INNOVATIONS ESS DUAL Plus
Very nice but Brett with the way I drive it seems I would need lots of sound effects for crashing.
Just got an ESS Dual in the mail yesterday. You guys had a sale plus the 5 off anything over 50. I was like...NO BRAINER!!! The only problem is I have 7 crawlers. Now 6 of them are going to very very envious. LOL
I have one in each of my rigs and it just makes crawling all that much more fun! My only gripe is I wish they were waterproof!
yes but you can make it easy waterproof i just opened mine and used plasticspray over all crit components i submerged it since then a loot in puddles and nothing happend
I'm putting this in a Clod Buster and it is DEFINITELY getting a horn! haha Can't wait.
Great Review
very nice
I want one for my Slash 4x4 :)
Have the first version.Guees it's about time I upgrade to the newest one next.My wraith is in need of some sounds after all I've managed to build it and figured out a way to have the RC4WD V8 in the custom frame that took some thinking and trail and error LOL
I stumbled across this product and, as I have an unfulfilled need, perhaps a new-product business opportunity.
I want something like this, but rather louder, for my electric motorcycle :)
Can you uploads rally and racing car sounds too
I wish there was something like that for smaller scale RC cars
Hey greetings from Mexico 🇲🇽!
Awesome review, now I have some concerns, I've been watching several videos on sound modules for RC, but I have never seen anybody use it on a Brushless setup, and some reviews on known online shopping apps that some doesn't work on brushless setups.
Does the ESS works on Brushless?
We haven't heard that. I can't understand why the system would work with Brushed, but not Brushless? I believe it works with both systems.
-Brett
I'm a happy user of 2 ESS Dual in my Kraton and Asuga, but due to internal space management, I installed these in the lenght sense. It seems they have an internal gyro to shape the sound, Would you know if the installation rotation makes a difference, and how dos it affects the sound?
what adapter is needed for the Traxxas ID battery to the ESS One?
Just got it for Christmas. Cannot get it to connect to the website to download more sounds. Keeps telling me no device detected. I have it connected to USB and the program is open. Any help? Can't find any info online about troubleshooting it.
Hey . Are you able to read your device via RC Plus ? i have 2 - today both can nnot be read, use 2 S-link, 2 new cables- I getting Error code Type:266 - check data cable , but yesterday all was ok.
Is there a way to have the same module but with customizable sounds effect of my own? If not is there anything out there that I can use? Thank you.
What’s with the weird delay?
Good video
🔵🔵🔵🙂🙂🙂👍👍👍🔵🔵🔵
Anyone know how to reset these? I have an older 1 & see no way to reset.
Thx in advance!
Are these able to be powered directly off the receiver if you use a jst to servo plug adapter if the reciever is powered by a esc with a built in 7.4v bec?
Not that I'm aware of but it may be possible. The instructions say it will work from 5-26 Volts of power.
-Brett
I wished they would use a 16 or 32 Bit Soundmodul the 8bit Sounds like a 80s fisherprice toy.
is it possible to key the ignition start when the power switch is turned on?
Not that I know of but that would be cool.
-Brett
Brett, I’m looking for siren and lighting wiring assistance. I have lights, but no consolation into a single system. This ESS One sounds like I can have the siren in the third channel, right? So that would work... Do you have suggestions for how to get my lights together?
Hmm, great question. Not sure how you'd get the lights and sirens to work together because the lights requires one channel, and the siren on a second. You may have to flip two channels on. But I'll message a few people here and see if they have any idea.
-Brett
The biggest help is a system to consolidate multiple light into one unit for control. I guess it would be similar to theRC Semi MFC 01, 02, or 03 from Tamayia. It is a single unit for lights and sound, I just need police... Thank you for answering and your help.
@@roberteakins2331 Sorry Robert, i'm not aware of any system to achieve this. Not that there isn't one out there, but we're not sure. I'd recommend asking in some of the R/C forums where others may have more knowledge in this area. Hope you find some help.
-Brett
Does anyone know how to install boat engine sounds?I am trying on RCPlus,I found the boat engine sound ,downloaded them but the can not be installed.... ESS-ONE+ 2017 module
I just finished installing the duel plus on the TRX four and everything is working except how do you get the horn to work. You mentioned about a third channel but that doesn’t seem like I’ve got that with this truck is there another way of making that function
I believe you'll have to use the ESS software to configure those extra sounds. Have you checked out the audio store? You'll need to download the extra audio clips: www.sensehobby.com/index.php?m=content&c=index&a=lists&catid=22&
-Brett
@@AMain_Hobbies yes I spent a lot of time finding out that windows 10 needed a file and then I was able to install the sounds , but the horn I'm not sure how that fires of from the remote
I'm really sorry David, it's been so long, we're not sure how Matt did it. I asked him about it but he couldn't remember how he configured it to work. Have you had any more luck?
-Brett
so, whats a different between them? is a ess dual has more louder sound than a ess one?
The dual has two speakers but is also larger. I believe the dual also includes some mounting brackets for common trail trucks of a few years ago. Not sure how applicable the mounts would be today, but the system will sound great.
-Brett
how to change sound on windows 10? No horn and brake sound.
so whats the difference then between the 2? is the double speaker just much louder & thats it? Thanks
Yeah, better sound some say. But the dual is the original design so it's bigger and bulkier. The One is quite good and it's much more compact.
-Brett
@@AMain_Hobbies Thanks I definitely prefer the louder of the 2, I've tried most all others simulator kits out there & none of them have the volume needed to make it worth while. especially when running a Redcat Gen 8 w/all metal gears there loud as it is. the Traxxas Slash kit on the other hand is extremely loud its loudest Ive ever heard but it would be a pain to install on a gen 8 & its only one sound . I was researching ess simulator kits & it shows the ess one was the original speaker in larger form then they made the ess one plus 2017 in smaller form & directly following that was the ess duel speaker plus (confusing) I went with the Ess Duel Plus, itll be here Friday, fingers are crossed I like it.... Thank you
Hi @AMain Hobbies I received my dual from you about a week ago, it works great on my brushed Element RC Enduro Sendero, but won't work at all on the intended vehicle which is a brushless Losi LMT. I've read other threads of people coming to the conclusion that these don't work with certain ESCs. Do you know if there any truth to that?
Hmm, haven't heard that. How are people wiring this up? I believe it's supposed to be wired at the connector before the ESC. What voltages were you running?
-Brett
@@AMain_Hobbies 2S for the vehicle that worked, 3S for the vehicle that didn't work. Using the supplied connector which runs to the battery for power. In both cases I configured the speaker on the software for the appropriate battery type. For signal I'm using the supplied splitter which plugs into the receiver, then splits to the speaker, and the esc.
@@frozenfist3360 Interesting. Can you tell me what ESC is in the 2s vehicle, and the esc in 3s vehicle? Side note: talked to a guy here who uses the ESS and he hasn't heard of any ESC compatibility issues, although we can see that potentially happening, we just haven't heard of it before.
-Brett
@@AMain_Hobbies Sure thing! The 2S has a Reedy SC400x, and the 3S a Spektrum Firma Smart 130A (SPMXSE1130). I really appreciate you digging into this.
@@frozenfist3360 I know this is old but for those looking into this. The Spektrum Smart data protocol seems to mess with splicing the sound control into the ESC wire. If you have extra channels on your RC, put the ESS sound module into the extra channel and mix it with the throttle.
How to ess system to the kraton 6s
Can you use them for almost all rc cars ?
Almost...
-Brett
Excuse me, if my car requires two batteries (Tandem), how do I install the ess sound effect? Thank you
For this, you will need to splice the ess into the positive and negative wires coming off the ESC, there are only two (ignore the jumper wires that goes from one connector to the other connector).
-Brett
why are they the same price?
How can i power it if all my battery are xt90 not t plug
You have to use a adapter plug from XT90 to Deans in your case. Or make a completely new cable.
hi does anybody know how to stop the ess dual from turning the sound off when in neutral. asking for a friend
I badly need an answer too. It's irritating when you do rock crawling and have to stop frequently to assess the rocks and your truck keeps turning off and on 😑
@@mckyra You can hook the system up on your computer and change the delay time for restarting the engine. Default is 5 seconds but you can easily change that to 10s or longer. Whatever you prefer. Good luck.
Hi, Can I power this from a spare channel in the reciever?
No, I don't think it will be enough power. It is supposed to be directly wired to the battery wires on the ESC; I don't think the Rx can power it.
-Brett
I want to use this with a scx24
How you can off sound from transmitter I mean when run truck without sound like a lesu 3t sound you can sound off from radio control anyone try it
How to operate horen ?
Is it possible to get the dimensions of both systems?
For some reason ESS doesn't list them that I see. Here are the manuals if you'd like to take a look: images.amain.com/images/resources/ASC29262/Manuals/1-ASC29262%20ESS-One+%202017%20Manual.pdf
images.amain.com/images/resources/ASC29263/Manuals/1-%20ASC29263%20%20ESS%20Dual+%20Manual.pdf
But can you make and upload your own sounds?
No, unfortunately you must use their sound effects.
-Brett
Alguien sabe si lo puedo usar en el Batmobile RC de Hotweels 1:10?
How would I mount it on a trx4 sport?
Maybe some velcro, double sided tape, zip-ties or create a mount using Lexan sheet; there may be plans for a 3D printed mount on Thingyverse. The ESS-Dual includes a TRX4 mount but it is intended for the Defender body where there is more room under the body for clearance. Hope this helps.
-Brett
Does anybody know how configure a ess dual plus for 6s need help pls
@@AMain_Hobbies so do i turn down the volume in the program on the computer all the way down to level 4 or do i do it first on 6s system
Would this work with a 2s in an SCX24?
Yes, that voltage should work but unfortunately, one of these ESS units is about the same size as a SCX24.
-Brett
Is there a module that I can get that has real boat engine sounds like drag boat engines I have an old hydroplane I want to restore but I wanted to sound authentic cuz I'm converting it from nitro to electric?
Hmm, I don't remember seeing any boat engine sounds on the website.
-Brett
Can I put this in my X-Maxx 8s. I have two 4s 8500mah 14.8v batteries. Is it possible? Should I set the volume to 1 or 2?
No. They can handle up to 6S but no more.
-Brett
@@AMain_Hobbies thanks!!!
@@AMain_Hobbies I have a Super Rock Rey with XT90 connections and 8s. Couldn't I just use a xt90 parallel splitter and feed the ESS off of one of the batteries?
@@subzerolives In theory it will work but you'll be discharging one battery faster than the other; how fast? Not sure. The real issue is the possibility of the LVC cutoff being delayed and not cutting off at the appropriate time, leaving you with one battery drained too far, and the other too soon. I suppose we don't really know how much it drains unless you try it and measure the voltage drain with a cell checker. But, I can't recommend anything that may be unsafe or cause you any personal or property damage; to be safe, we don't recommend you try this.
-Brett
@@AMain_Hobbies Thank you for the replay I just realise that I can power the module through the receiver.
Doesn't work with apple mac
does someone know if this system works with a trx 4 sport
Yes, it should work with the TRX4 trucks.
-Brett
I need a siren on my UDR.
DOES IT WORK ON TRAXXAS
IT SHOULD WORK ON ALL HOBBY GRADE RC'S
YES
Sad it is not waterproof...
Can you install ess dual in a felony 6s
Should work, it supports 6S use so you'll just need to figure out how to mount it.
-Brett
@@AMain_Hobbies it's how to wire the power plug should I use the bec wire or just the positive and negative
@@craigbeckwith258 I believe the power wire on the ESS unit is meant to be connected to the battery leads on the ESC. The ESS unit comes with a t-style connector adapter but that's the wrong connector for you. You might have to splice in the ESS wires to the ESC wires and solder them in there. There's probably more than one way to do it though.
-Brett
Website is shut down buyer beware can’t change sounds .
AMain Hobbies I hope so . 🤙
Anyone get the blinking blue lights?
I cant seem to get it to work on my TH.
Works with steering.
I have a Xmaxx, using the y connector esc to receiver channel 2.
Still cant get it to work.
Also using separate 2s lipo to power it.
Any suggestions are welcome thanks!!!!
Dang, have you be able to get the device to work on another model Stanley?
-Brett
I have not tried.
If I plug it into the TH ch. Directly it works fine just no throttle for the truck.
If its plugged into ch 3 directly it works great off the steering control.
@@stanleyruss88 What if you use the Y-splitter to add the ESC in the loop; forget the extra 2S LiPo in the loop.
-Brett
I just set it all up on my traxxass rustler 4x4 vxl and everything works fine.
So what your are saying run it without the 2s lipo?
I would have to power it through a 4s battery?
@@stanleyruss88 Interesting. I just wanted to ensure the unit worked by testing on a second vehicle. You would want to power the ESS from both packs to ensure they discharge together, but you can't since the ESS is only 6S LiPo max.
I just got done reading a few forum threads where users where having the same issue with the X-Maxx, even when using 6S in the model. This user described blue lights and no throttle. I'm not sure what it is about the X-Maxx, or the ESC used, but it seems as though they do not pair well. I'll see if we can gather any more info. Let me know what you try or experiment with.
-Brett
Matt’s got it turning off too soon
RC plus is in chinese and won't dowload...wtf eh?
Try this page: www.sensehobby.com/index.php?m=content&c=index&a=lists&catid=115
-Brett
Update: I'm on Windows 10 and it installed for me ok.
@@AMain_Hobbies Yep that was a better link...I have 2 ESS duals on the way here this wknd...just wanted to be sure I could set them up...Thanks for the help...
nice device hehe i just got one check it out on my channel
With a bit of modification on PC audio software you can do all sorts th-cam.com/video/GI9jP3dGDhw/w-d-xo.html
They still sound fake.I love the horn but engine sound is just fake synthetic noise.
Seems useless ,
How so? It's about scale look and feel, and whats better then sound????
Bullshit.
What's the metal ring around the jst plug wire?
I believe it's a Ferrite Core, which helps avoid any electrical interference. You can read more about them here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrite_core
