LRP Flow X does not turn on

As per title, I bought one brand new. Doesn't turn on. TC spec if it matters. I'm not sure if I want to start ripping into it or send back to the hobbyshop.....

I know I can cut off the switch, but don't really want to do that incase it is something else. That would make returning it more complicated....

Pull the switch out off the switch casing to make sure the switch wire did not break off and is making a constant connection. The speed control is “on”. When the switch wires are disconnected.

I wouldn't mess with it, especially if the ESC is only a few days old. LRPs warranty system is suspect. Not sure what it's like now with new ownership. Swap it out for another or get your money back.

Return for exchange. Hobby shop can test/verify themselves. Once you open it up, warranty is void!!!

Problem solved. Dodgy female deans plug on the battery lead.:sweat: Soldered in a new one.

Embarrassingly, I had to take my car/setup to the LHS to solve the problem..... dude there wiggled the power leads and it magically worked.......:blush:
