Brand new waterproof BR-XL...DEAD!!!
 

I just ordered this thing at the first of the month. Tonight was the first oppurtunity i've had to run it somewhere other than my yard. As soon as the rear of the truck touched the water it died. Brought it back home and tried another battery first and nothing. Then pulled my spare stock ESC and hooked it up and the truck ran fine. Went back and plugged up the BR-XL again with 2s battery and everything was glitching and the light was blinking erratically. Hooked up the 3s again briefly and nothing again.

What did I do wrong?

Oh yea, truck is an SCX10 .

Edit to add:

It ended up being mostly submerged for about 45 seconds as I was trying to figure out what was going on. Below are pics.
