I wouldn't call it reliable ;) I wanted to buy tekin again, but from here, in europe it would be a disaster, 1 race, 1 month or more waiting nad 20-30$ shipping. I chose Neu and MMM and no problems at all. But it is a pity, rx8 seemed to be mamba killer, but even esc gets quite many failures, mostly because of electronics getting loose during crashes (sensor plate and so on).
Well tekin was my first "real" racing equipment and I can thank them for great time I had, but I just don't trust the motor anymore and with that in your head "it can die anytime now" you don't have proper mind setting for racing. So I have already neu for replacement and after winter I will buy any new neu that will come to market...
Looks like one dead ESC here. Simply wont "command" the motor, no chimes or turning the axle. Leds work fine as well as HotWire. Too bad they wont move my car
Going to see when the tekin support replys to my email. Wont be calling to their support from Finland
