Can i ask you a simple question with the cap have you activated 100% reverse in use with full brakes as someone has advised on this forum ?If you have it's no the right way of doing it and i dont recommened it because when going to full brakes but as well as the reverse function your causing a massive spike in reverse polarity which in turn would cause the the cap to burn .please send me an email at [email protected] and we can work together on the issue to solve it .

The issue seems to have been with the cap. I don't use the brakes, just rely on the drag brakes, and had the brakes set at 75% and 25% reverse. I think the issue may have been one of 2 things, either it some how spiked or the wire to the cap board became detatched.
I have fitted a replacement cap as advised by Angelo. The good thing is the esc is still working. I have set reverse to 0%, and set the brakes to Drag Brake, hopefully this has sorted it.
