This should be asked in the RX8 thread .


Did you have the battery plugged into the ESC when you hooked the Hotwire to it ?

All lights simply lit means something is way out of sync. What did you do JUST prior to this issue?

Update the software? Change a setting?

You can start over from scratch by simply performing a factory reset and re input your settings for lvc, etc.
