Default Dead Tekin FX-R?

I have a Tekin FX-R installed in my MRC Nat that I robbed from last years 2.2 rig, in which it ran well until the last day that I took it out.

On that day it simply stopped functioning, and when I picked it up and set it back down, all was good. After having to do that 3 or 4 times, I knew something was up.

Fast forward to today...It's set it up in my Nat and it ran well for the first 2 runs, but now I have no input control or movement at all.

Plugged into my Hot Wire and I downloaded the latest software updates and re-adjusted all of my profiles on the ESC, then re-calibrated to my DX3.

Now when I fire it up, I have no audibles, and still no function at all, but the LED's are still working and moving as they would normally.

Here's what I'm using with the FX-R:

Hi Tec 5245MG Mini Digital
Spektrum SR3500 Micro Rx
Losi 2S 600 mAH Lipo
Holmes Torque Master Mini
Micro Deans and 18 awg wire

Thoughts anyone?

That's the first I have heard of an FX-R failing. Hope Tekin gets you fixed up. Out of curiosity, what motor and battery were you running in the 2.2?
