Default Problems with Venom ESC

I purchased a Venom ESC in December and on the third time out with it the reverse function went, I took it back to the LHS and they swapped no questions asked, thanks Fred. Anyway I have used it a few times over the holidays and one race meet and again the reverse function has disappeared. On Sunday I was casually tapping the brake while I was talking to someone and the reverse came on and then disappeared again. Other people at my club have this esc and aren't complaining, so I am trying to work out what is going on before I send an angry email to Venom.

I am using a Prince 13.5 sensored motor and a Trinity 17.5 sensored motor and they have never gone over 150F and the ESC has never gone over 100F.

I don't really use reverse much but it is handy for practice and when bashing. And I know I haven't bought a $400 esc, but I do expect it to do what they say it will!

ANY ideas?

Nick
