Default probelm with vxl system

Drove my slash around in the snow with a vxl 3500 system, I let it dry out in the kitchen and plugged the battery back in and turned it on. The led flashes red and green and I have no throttle but steering works. I looked at the manual but it didn't help any. I'm running a dx3.0 and a 4700 7cell. Figured some one might have had this problem?

Thanks

sounds like your power/setup button is sticking causing it to go into reprogram or train mode.

mine did that, took it apart opened the button hole a tiny bit with a drill then reassembled. After repromming it was fine, never did it again.

Traxxas knows about this, they will fix for free. Newer revision is supposed to fix this.

Yeah my button stuck too. I dabbed my finger in grease and rubbed it all around the button and the hole. Freed it up good.
