I picked up a couple turnigy lipos, soldered them up yada yada... Aaand now that I think about it I did short one of the batts while I was soldering it. Seems to be an all to common occurance for my dumb-ass.
Anyways, put them in the savage and ran it for a few minutes then all of a sudden it died. I had ANOTHER holy christ it is going to light on fire moment but after I relaxed I could not figure out the problem. Got it inside, figured the esc was dead as I could not get anything to work, no esc, servo nudda. Figured my hokey waterproofing job did not work on the esc, then out of curiosity checked the batt voltages.
Wow I am going off topic.
To make a long story short, one cell has nudda, dead cell. Checked the solder job out, everything looks to be connected. Did I kill a cell when i shorted it? This aint my first time shorting a battery but is the first time I have killed one.
