Need help
 

I think I may have cooked my LRP TC Spec Sphere Comp. I have steering and my transponder works but the truck doesnt move. I never did the setup on it and took it out and was driving it and all of a sudden it stoped moving. When I pull the trigger the lights on the controller change but then the red and yellow blink at the same time. Any ideas? Is it shot?

I don't have too much experience with LRP speed controllers, however I have witnessed them overheating on more than one occasion. Furthermore, they're very sensitive to moisture like all ESCs are. Now as I said I don't have much experience with LRP controllers, but in my experience with other ESCs, suddenly stopping, still being able to steer, and red and yellow lights is usually a warning of overheating, or.. Your motor could be faulty, I'm not certain how new or old your powerplant is so the validity of that statement is a crap shoot, ESCs have been getting more and more advanced, and (if this is the right term) more intelligent, so your controller could very well be saying "Crap, the motor isn't doing what I'm telling it to!" haha ;)

I would suggest you contact LRP for exact information on their indicator lights, and when and why they show up.

Hope this helps!

" I never did the setup on it "

Why would you need to? Just go buy another one.:rolleyes:

The way I understand it all the setup does is set the neutral, brake, and wide open throttle positions. Its all better and running now. I dont know what was wrong. It just started working.
