No all other escs are fine it was only the stock spec and only a very small batch only and it wont happen again i assure of that it was a ROM manufacturing fault from supplier not a falcon sekido issue so be assured what you purchase or get replaced by falcon sekido is very reliable and safe .

have fun racing guys will have some good news about the Zero spec 3.1 shortly

You might get some crazy looking characters when uploading the usb link but rest assure there is nothing wrong with the program just click on the first menu and change the language to english it just we didnt use english as the default setting when it was released.

Looking at getting the quicrun WP 60a (sensorless). What would be the motor limit for 540 can motors? The website only shows limits for smaller motors. It'll be going into a stampede 2wd.

this bit about bricked escs - is it something that happens to all Stock Spec 3.1's or just a few here and there. I got one about 2 months ago and was able to update the firmware without issue.

Does this mean the one I have is good, or is there a possibility that it can still happen?

thanks!

Good question. I updated my v3.1 Stock Spec just fine. I'm assuming if something were to mess up, it would have already done so, so I'm not worried about it, though.

Mine wasn't the stock spec and I still got the error. If yours downloaded fully, then you shouldn't have any problems. Ours failed during the process of downloading..

It is only a very small batch of black v3.1 stock spec escs and only delivered to falcon sekido no where else around the world and they are not bricked like the Apple term you guys are using it was a few defective rom chips.

I assure you no where else around the world has the issue.

Updated my 2 stock spec escs without issue, both were from falcon sekido. I am assuming that they are fine.

ok. mine came from TQ RC Racing, which probably would have gotten them from Falcon Sekido - since they are the North American distributor

just figured I'd ask to be sure since I got it from a US retail shop
