Need to wallow in my pity.

Well this has been a crappy weekend altogether.

Started with racing this Saturday, car ran fine all three qualifiers but four minutes in to the A1 main I lost signal to my buggy. Turns out the internal BEC in the xcelorin esc has failed. There was a single blue LED lit on the ESC but no life in the rx. Once power had been disconected it would work again, for about 30 seconds. Now it just sits there, LED's responding to throttle/brake input but no motor movement.

This will be sent to Losi for warranty repair.

And now after putting my Mamba Monster in the buggy, I find that it has issues as well. It will cog badly and will reset once in a while. Like the power has been turned off and the on again very quickly. While trying to figure out the cogging the yellow LED started blinking very fast and it will not respond to throttle input.


So that's my weekend, how has yours been?
