WOW, I'm an IDIOT... - 08.02.2008, 02:15 AM

For those of you who tried to help me, thanks, remember my problem with my radio not syncing, how I thought I needed a new one?

Well...

Turns our what had happened was I forgot to tighen the screws on my rcm motor mount, and forgot one all together on the bottom, so it shifted, causing my bec wire to get near my spur, then shifted back trapping it. When I tried to drive it, the BEC wire was instantly shredded and shorted, explaining the burning smell.

SO, I'm going to switch to a cc bec and see how it goes, but only after I come back from England and belgium (august 10).

Anyways, thanks to all who helped, and if anyone cares I'll keep you all updated after my trip.
