Ok. What is the deal with these Orca capacitors? What classes do you need to use them and why?

soooooooooo, i just got my rspro back from tekin(replaced under warranty-thank you) and first night out in 2 weeks my old rspro dies. and by old i mean 4 months old. it has no throttle or brake response at all and the chime doesnt work.
its running 1s 13.5t 1/12 and the esc nor motor was getting hot. the motor was about 130 f and the esc has always been around 60-70 f.
my question is what do i do??? its past the 90 days and i have a race in 2 weeks and cannot afford to buy a 3rd esc. i have $500 tied up in esc and programmer.
thanks

Anthony, that is the on board temp monitor. That is normal. The info you're looking for is in your instructions.
If your li-fe pack is not supplying enough voltage the system will not fully arm. I'd suggest trying the esc on a regular 2s supply pack.

does it chime when you tun on the esc.the light sequence 4-1 is normal,the ramp up from throttle is normal and brake,if no movement check to make sure you are getting power to the rx with your pack,the esc will power up on 1s but will not have any chime

Yeah it sounds like a voltage issue of some sort. Will the speedo come on with the pack hooked up but the speedo switch turned OFF? If not, the problem is the rx pack, probably a bad connector. If it does, might me a voltage problem. Check the pack to make sure it's putting out enough juice.

Also our "Tekin Live Chat" is up during business hours. This means you will get in touch with real R/C guys not someone that is just trained to ask ?'s.
