Yogi, what brand & model motor are you using with that esc? I recall some brands & models of motors had sensor issues with the Reventon esc's, and to get around it one of the sensor wires had to be cut, could be related to your problem.

I'm using a Reventon S (is basically the same, except for the software) in my F1 car and so far haven't any problems with it, but I've only used a Speed Passion and Hobbywing 21.5 motors with it.
As metalnut said, if all else fails then grab a Justock esc, very reliable little esc.

Cheers
Rob.
Oh, I didn't know they cared about the source of purchase. I've gotten my SP stuff from SP USA, since they have a warehouse here now.

As for your other comment, I believe it is Viper motors that don't work right with the SP ESCs due to the temperature sensor that Viper uses.
