v2 pooped the bed.
 
well my beloved v2 finally died today. it had been acting up for about the past week, flip the switch tones and everything would go great give it a lil bench rev worked fine set it down go to drive away and nothin. unplug batts let it sit for about a hr and it did the same thing all over again. now i get nothin. time to send her in for a v3 i guess. shell be 6 months old on the 16th of january. maybe 20 30 minute runs at the most.

just as i get my driveshaft parts to get her up and runnin agian she pooped out.

Almost sounds like you were expecting it sooner or later. It held up for a long time though.

traxxasrevony 01.03.2009 10:26 PM

yea 6 months i cant complain. alot better than my v1 i think i had it a week lol.

Yeah that is a lot better then one week. Haven't heard of many problems with the v3. They must of gotten all the wrinkles out.

Not really. They are still going to sell a bunchload of that due to the savage flux and BL Erevo.

No need for prayer. My replacement V3 is still running strong after my V2 went out. Same setup, but V3 controller. Did you ever do the firmware update on your V2? That might have saved it.

traxxasrevony 01.04.2009 01:03 AM

yup firmware was the latest. i hooked it up atleast once a week to play with settings. i think the first sign was when i turned brakes completely off and it said settings have been saved but the brakes were still as sthey were as strong as they were beforre i changed settings. i tried about 3 more times and it still didnt work. im runnin a 2 speed with mech brakes so it didnt much matter but it would of been nice to have them off.
