got me a little problem

[ikpthegame]

So my RX8 and 1550kv motor has been sweet, until today. I just redid my wiring since I moved the esc, and it worked great for a while. I started to jump the truck and took a weird landing and it stoped responding. Then after a few seconds it starts to move again but only for 5 feet. I could turn it off and back on and it would only move 5 feet again. Now when it trys to arm I dont get any beeps but the leds on the esc say its armed, but no go. So any idea? I checked all of the wires and they are good.

Have you tried running it sensorless? Maybe they were damaged in the wierd landing some how...

[ikpthegame]

yup thats the first thing i tried.

[What's_nitro?]

Re-load/update the firmware, perhaps....?

[ikpthegame]

i reset it, but there is something wrong since it happened after the jump

[What's_nitro?]

Well then... I guess you really knocked something loose. Is it OK by Tekin for you to open the case? Maybe it's obvious what's wrong inside...

[ikpthegame]

ya idk, but the screws on my case came striped lol

[TekinTeamMgr]

Well if you stripped the case you've got no choice but to send it in.

I think he meant the screws were already stripped when he got it.

[ikpthegame]

ya the screws were striped when i opened the box lol.

[ikpthegame]

sent it out today, whats your turn around time right now tekin?

I've got exactly the same trouble as you described with my new RX8
A run of 3 minutes/2 jumps then nothing else. The ESC seems to work as LEDs are OK except no more beeping during the power ON.
How did you manage with TEKIN ? Did you sent it back ?
