Orion r10 repairs

[kartstuffer]

Just after touching the pos & neg power wires to the wrong plugs ( for a nanosecond ) now the speedo will only run if I help it by spinning the pinion up .when I stop it will not restart unless I give it a push . Does anyone know who would repair them ??Thanks

I would contact Kyosho UK and see what they have to say, They are always very helpful.

Tried that and made no difference.
When i disconnect the sensor wire it runs fine.(not in the car so dont know under load)When the sensor lead is connected i have to spin the pinion to get it to run ??

Sensor problem, I had the same thing. Kyosho said that the sensor part of the esc is the most sensitive. The esc had to be replaced.

PM pugs here, he may beable to help. Have you tested another sensor cable and motor just to be on the safe side?

[kartstuffer]

Yes tried all combinations ,i have another r10 and tried the cap off that as well.

Sensor circuitry fried on the ESC, have seen it a few times on Hobbywing made ESC's.
