Losi 1/8 ESC - bad experience ...

[Topas]

Today I received the Losi 8ight-e here in germany ... sadly the ESC stopped working BEFORE the first run outside...
I connected the 5s lipo and drove some seconds in the house - suddenly the car went to full throttle , hit my leg and awful smoke came out of the ESC ...

I think this ESC behaves like a MMM. --- I called Horizon Hobby customer support - they told me to return the damaged part.

Luckily I have a Kontronik Jazz 80 and a MGM 22418 at home so I will try the rest of the car this weekend...
