i bought the trackstar programming card to setup the esc but the freaking card would not work with this esc!! and then

with no programming card and no instructions on how to setup esc, i was stuck. the car would drive but i had no brakes.
I'm not sure if you're still fighting with this ESC or not, but if it came from the same factory as the Turnigy 1S ESC I got, the throttle setup might work like this:

1 - Hold full throttle on the transmitter
2 - turn on the ESC
3 - Keep holding until the ESC flashes green LED & it "rings".
4 - red LED now blinks & ESC beeps. Hold full brake.
5 - Keep holding until it "rings" again.
6 - yellow LED blinks & it beeps. Return trigger to neutral.
7 - ESC will ring again.

Actually, looking at the picture it doesn't appear to have 3 different color LEDs. Still, a procedure similar to this might work...
