Sidewinder SV2 problems

[foratm]

Ok so I burnt up a motor the other day so i decided to switch out motors. The sidewinder SV2 is a month old and now i'm having problems.
I touched the wire leads to the replacement motor to make sure it will run. It spun forward and backwards.
So i mount everything up re calibrate the esc about 15 times now and the same thing every time. Calibrates with no problem. After the calibration is done and i restart all of my electronics the green and yellow led flicker out of control. And no response to the motor. the leds will not even change with the throttle just keep on blinking green and yellow real fast. If i reverse the radio the lights will blink green only and slower when i throttle up it will blink red.

I have tried three different batteries. I have done an entire programing setup to make sure it is on brushed.

Any ideas gentlemen.

I tried all three of my motors now and no luck. The motor that burned up the bruses of course didnt make any beeps the other two did they were integy 35t's the broken one was the stock axial 27t.

I emailed castle hopefully they get to me pretty quick. I'll post their response.

What radio??

Did you follow Castle's troubleshooting sheet??

[foratm]

Fly sky gt3b and did the trouble shooting in the manual.

Based on this..... Castle Creations | FAQ: 1/10th Scale Products (bottom of page) flashing green & yellow is LVC (low voltage cutoff).

Is the LVC set in the ESC?
What battery are you running (voltage/cell count)
Does it do the LED flash with other battery packs??

[foratm]

Yeah i.reprgramed the lvc a well to check if it was the problem. I have 11.1 3c batts. they have always worked until now.

I'm having the same problems with mines. I plug the batt in and no throttle or steering only the lights keep blinking nothing will work. I too need some answers. Sorry not trying to thread jack.

[foratm]

See I do have steering though the power us going through the esc to my servo. Just no throttle.
I have tried all ouf my batteries three different motors reeired twice switch polarity on the motors. changed the lvc abd other settings in the esc and nothing.

[foratm]

What doesn't make sense is that when I tried the replacement motor before installing in the rig it worked. I recalibrated after installing to assure full potential of the motor and them it quit.

Let me throw this out there, you recalibrate the esc to the radio, full throttle, full reverse, etc., epas 100% trim 0 and normal all channels not reversed? you get the programming set of sounds the first time and you wait a couple of seconds maybe more then you get the second set of sounds fro confirmation and then you use the throttle, lights but no go?

Correct on all of the beeps confirming correct calibration. After final set of beeps green and yellow led blink extremely fast. Not consistent either applying throttle does not change anything. if I turn it off and set my radio to reverse chanel two and turn back on the esc it cycles on, then blinks only green apply throttle blinks red reverse green neutral green. Turn off reverse on channel two goes back to green and yellow blinking crazy fast.

well then it's not finalizing programming mode, so i would say contact castle
