This app is great I had a hard time at first I emailed Bekins tech and told them my prob they emailed me the next day trying to help well found out it was my fault once I figured it out works great very easy to tune your esc couldn't be happier with the hot wire 3.0 and Bekins app worth trying out

I have used this for the past couple of years, it works great. The main reason I have only been using Te kin esc's.

Great concept but can not get it to work with my Samsung s7 edge, Samsung tab s or Samsung note 8. It will bind, but when you try to connect the software it says "hot wire found" then "reading settings" then it kicks off and says "no hot wire found"... if this is a firmware issue, tekin needs to address it. Very upset I spent the money to have the Bluetooth only to find it will not work.

I have the 3.0 hot wire and went to use my iPad on it, I downloaded the app, and it will not connect to my iPad ......2 hrs later and still nothing ....on the iPad it says to download the 2.80 update, and I already did .... I'm done messing with it . I bought it to tune, but I can't ....tekin fix the problem or give my money back on the 3.0 hot wire, and you can take your ESC back also I have the RX8 gen 3.... seriously fix it, and I'm not the only one saying something
