Ok, not happy today !

Had to take a year out due to an accident.

Was checking everything last night for an up coming meeting to get back into racing..

Everything was working fine, but decided to put Mod2 ( was running Mod1 ), so fired up the laptop, usb'd the LCD Programme Box, disconnected the lipo's and rx & fan plugs, plugged in the LCD rx lead into the esc, the esc then turned on by itself, now the yellow/amber light is on solid and nothing works !

The Reventon PC programme just keeps asking to connect to the esc, I hit yes, 5 sec later it asks again.

Plugged everything back in when the PC is disconnected, but the yellow/amber light is solid on, the esc excepts no input from the tx, servo and pt working fine.

I now it's F***ED , but what the hell has happen, can anyone shed any light ?

Cheers in advance.

Did you plug into the battery port on the receiver rather than port 1?
(Speaking from eexperience)

If the yellow light is on, that just indicates that is a sensored motor.
I'd be checking all the connectors/cables and trying another rx/motor/sensor cable.

No mate, I plugged the LCD Programmer lead into the esc rx port after removing the rx plug !

Matt, good advice, will rip all the kit out of my 4WD and check each one
