| Wild Throttle
Good morning folks. I'm having an issue I hope to get some help with but I am afraid I smoked my ESC. I am using the AE-5 with a Titan 550 and a Savox servo with a BEC from castle. When I plug in my battery I get the 3 beeps for a 3s LiPo but no throttle control. Servo works fine. If I hold down the throttle for a few seconds it will beep and start moving but I have no control over it. Reverse or forward barely makes it move. I have done nothing new to the car. It started happening while I was sitting around the house farting around with it. I also tested the motor straight to the battery. The motor works fine. I'm not sure what else it could be? Maybe ESC? Or maybe it needs to be calibrated but everything I have found to calibrate doesnt seem to make a difference. Edit: The ESC blilnks red until I get the motor to start moving. Once the motor to start moving it wont stop unless I play with the throttle trim. Once it stops I can't get it to go in reverse. Going reverse throttle makes the tires go forward faster.

Start by rebinding and the calibrate the esc to your Tx . The blinking red led indicates either reverse or bad calibration Hang up and Drive |

I rebound the Tx/Rx and followed the cal procedures. When I plug the battery in the Bomber goes WOT. I can move the trim down to stop it but then it barely moves forward when I apply throttle and doesn't reverse at all. It just tried to go full throttle forward.

Time for a good old hobbywing 1080 or the complete brushless upgrade! If you already like the brushed titan 550, grab the 1080 esc, it's like 40$ |
