Thanks man.

I tried doing just that. However, when I turn it on, there is a 10 second pause, then I get a solid green light on the ESC, and a steady beep......beep.......beep from the motor (it keeps going.....). I've read through my instructions on the MGM about 10 times, and cant decipher what that means. I tried reversing the connector at the receiver, reversing the switch on the transmitter (I'm starting off trying to use the stock Traxxas transmitter).

I'm wondering if when the UBEC fried, if it may have damaged the ESC??

Update: After searching through the forum, it appears others have had this issue at times, but no authoritative diagnosis has been found. I tried switching a two of the motor wires. I also swapped in my DX3 radio, and no luck......but it appears that I'm not getting voltage to the the reciever (the light on the DX3 reciever did not come on). Just to verify, I can add a reciever pack correct?
