I think my Tekin RX8 has died. THoughts?
Ill make this short and to the point.
im driving the asc RC8Be and a front outdrive bearing failed. this put strain on my driveline, drag etc and I lost all power suddenly, with no warning.. the transponder and the servo are receiving power and signal, but the esc itself has no lights at all and the motor (2050kv) has no response,(obviously)
everything has been fine up until this point.
heat is my concern... it was about 80 degrees that day.. normal run.. nothing unusual.. I was on 4000mah 4s lipo.. well within operation specs, etc..
warranty or service possibly, or am I s.o.l.? I bought it last fall in september.
thanks,
Pete
