I brought it inside and to my surprise I couldn't get the ESC to turn on anymore (tried different LiPo's, disconnected and connected all the cable but nothing worked). The switch cables were still solidly together and all the other cables seem to be fine as well. I tried the ESC in my Flux XL but no response there either.
I just hooked it up to my PC and it works flawlessly on there (first I loaded standard settings but that didn't help, after that I upgraded the firmware from 1.21 to 1.24 Beta but still no response). So I decided the check the inside for any damage or what ever but everythings looks perfectly fine.
Does anyone have the golden tip for me to get this thing running again??
Thanks!
