fried esc
 

Just got my replacement fxr and first run out it started gettin glitchy on 3s tryed swaping back to nmh and not getting any power out of the esc to the motor. I was told by a tech that 3s was no prob for the fxr I set the cutoff at 3 w the hotwire Im getting upset that this is the second time this has happend:cry: Any ideas what might be doin this?

How long did the first one work until it fried?

I, along with many others run FXR's on 3s for a long time with no problems so, I think it's safe to say, that's not the problem.

There are a lot of threads regarding this ESC but, here is a thread that I remember from recently that you can read that might give you some idea's on what may be happening. Its not FXR specific but, similar.

I have a number of hours with dual FX'R's running on 3S. I don't consider this an issue.

I had th lhs do the soldering on it they used the rosin core same as before i ran it about 10 min and it acted like some sort of interferance and the servo was going crazy and no throtle at all I pick it up and acted normal for another 1 or 2 min and continued same thing the first one did the same thing but this one when i set it back to nimh getting no power out to the motor the batt im usin is a 20c 3000mah 11.1 blue lipo Im wondering if the batt has something to do w it but it checks out fine
