I borrowed a friends SXX V2 for the weekend that he pulled out of a 12th scale for me. On the fourth qualifier, it would not turn on. I didn’t over heat anything or wreak. As it turns out, the borrowed speed control didn’t work out of the box either. It would not work on a 1 cell lipo. He had to send it in twice before they figured out what was wrong and now he has to send it in a third time.

I talked to the warrantee people at associated and they said that the only thing they can do for me is send me a new one after I pay to ship this one back. They don't even have a way to ship brand new junk back to them without having their customers pay more. So, here I go spending more money on a speed control that I have no expectations will work. As long as an LRP speed control is in my car, I will have a backup in my pit box.
