Temps do not get anywhere near crazy, they are generally bearable to hold your finger on both the motor and ESC.

Issue is that I went to use the car today, when switching it on and going to take off on light throttle, the car juddered to a halt and would not go again at all.

Now the ESC smells like a blown FET and the outer most two LEDs are flashing constantly.

Anyone know what might have caused this and what the LEDs stand for?

Cheers.
If you mean LEDs 1 and 2, and 6 and 7 flashing that is the code for wrong motor type selected.

If the correct motor type is selected and these are flashing you need to contact Tekin support.
