Default My lynx just started to smoke

Ok, so today i was going to go outside and drive my tc3 around for a little bit, i put fresh energizer batts in and turned on the radio, then pluged the battery to my tc3. I hit the gas, car doesnt go. I notice that the throttle channel is switched, so i put it back to normal and hit the gas, still nothing. I look over at my Lynx controlled and its spewing out white smoke, the smell of something electrical burning kind of smoke. I immediatly turned off the controller and took out the batterys. I could now hear something rattling around inside. I find this strange because it worked so well at the track yesterday with no problems. Any suggestions? O ya, this contoller is also about 3 years old too.
Thanks for the help in advance.
