There you go.
first put on everything, hold button till red flash.
leave throttle on transmitter at neutral and press button
Then full throttle, and hold full throttle on your transmitter while pressing the button!
Then full brake and hold full brake while pressing the button!
What you now did if I understand your story right, is setting all 3 setting while your transmitter was in neutral position!
yep, your right. just fixed it. also now its no longer running flat out once its switched on.
thanks for your help guys, very much appreciated. I knew it was highly unlikley to be the products fault, and a 99% chance it would be the nut trying to program it haha. this what happens when you dont run EP for a few years, unless there's a carby and some screws to play with I'm stuffed haha
