We thought it might be the motor because he had the same problem a few weeks ago. It turns out it was the motor then. New Reedy 2100 went out and replaced with a Orion. He did the same thing yesterday but this time the motor was fine. So he replaced it and the 2nd esc went up in smoke.

I've been having problems before yesterday not being able to tune my esc with the proguage. Progauge will come on but keeps saying connection fail. Tried tuning with two other ez links couldn't get it to link either. Says waiting on esc with the ez link. I think I may of had some type of wiring problem. Like I said i love my viper vtx8 and will continue to run it but sucks we had bad luck this past weekend.
