Electrics Help!
Hi all. Have a couple of issues;
1. Getting a sparking and some smoke from what looks like 2 resistors when I wire up the battery?! No idea what I am doing wrong. Didn’t do this at the weekend?? 2. Have a new receiver for an old Spektrum DX3s I had. Reset all settings. Plugged it, when I switch the power on all I get is loads of throttle?! What am I doing wrong again?! Thanks in advance. Andy |

Sounds like you mean the capacitors. If so I'd try changing them before getting a new ESC.

Thanks for that. The car seems to be working ok. Not sure why it happened. There does seem to be a small spark as a push in the battery connectors - is that normal?
Any ideas on the Spektrum receiver? Cheers. |

Are you just swapping the RX over into the car with the rest of the electrics? Are you re-calibrating the ESC when swapping?
