I did the exact same thing. The esc switch only shuts off the esc, but the servo still gets powers. I ruined 2 Maxamps 6000's, so I decided to put the nitro motor in the car. All I can say is after...

That was a .90 size Raptor swinging 800mm carbon fiber blades at around 1800 rpm. They should get a Darwin Honerable mention for that one.

I'm using the box setup of 3,3,1.

This has to be the most maintanance free vehicle I have ever seen. All I have to do is hit with the air gun when I get home and that's it.

That's good to know. I did have it happen in a qualifier and it cost me 2 positions, but I was stabbing the throttle which was probably aggrivating the situation. There have only been two occasions...
