Download FW0012.003
ibu2u_firmware_updater_fw0012.003.zip
Note – Unzip the downloaded folder and DO NOT rename the file, the IBU2U will ignore the update if it is renamed.
New feature
User can define what happens when transmitter signal is lost, choice of engine shuts down or engine remains in idle state. To use this new feature you need to add the following command line into your ibu2u.ini setup file
MotorOnRadioOff=0; 0=Engine shut down when the TX signal is lost, 1=Engine remain on with idle sound present when TX signal is lost.
Improvements
When setting off Engine Rev is played, before tank moves and movement sound is played
Rev down file played in transition from movement sound to engine idle
Speaker pop noise at power on, now rectified
Board configuration loss, when using weak battery. Now rectified
RC Tank Electronics will update firmware of stock before sending out. If you are unaware what version firmware your IBU2U is running remove the microSD card and place in computer and you will see a “board Data” file open this and you will see something like this.
FWVERSION=FW00012.001
ID=333647090037002a
SYSTEMTYPE=BASE
Here you see the firmware version 0012.001

So we can update our existing IBU2 boards?
Does this update anything on the board or just the op sounds and commands on the SD card?
Wow this is great. I will look at doing this soon. Probably after the big D Day battle at LA Tank just incase I fubar the program, I don't want a tank down.

So i had to unconnected the barrel elevation servo to add a splitter and now it doesnt give any output to the motors, with 3 different rx/tx combos by 3 diff makers. So i switched to the ultimate. Ill mess with with it later.
can u fully kill the momentum so its more like the ibu2 pro ? Even with it off it still moves for a while after u let off the throttle
