|  Already screwed it up...
After preparing my RTR kit for three days I plugged a battery in and it all worked. Then the second time I go to plug it in I touched the dean's connector the wrong way and it sparked. Now nothing works. The esc (AE-5) blinks a red light, the bec has no lights. Do you think the motors are toast? It's quite difficult to undo everything and try new components.

Well damn that was like 70 Canadian bucks. But thanks that makes me feel better knowing the rest of it is okay and I can fix this.

Bought new ESC and hooked it all up. Does same thing. Blinking red light on esc no beep noise on start up no other lights on bec. Not sure if I need to remind the radio or how to do that.

It was the bec! Oh well. Trial and error was a little expensive today but it's kind of hard to just try another bec lol. I took the esc with bec off my redcat and it all works. Phew I'm just effing happy that's the end of it.
