Tekin RS ESC sensored
The stock cap should be found and put back on. The cap however was not the likely cause.
I would be looking at your sensor harness for frayed wires, loose battery connections,etc.

Hi,
Yesterday during a race (1/10 TC 2s) the speedo (RS Pro) shut down for a few seconds, and then got going again and was fine for the rest of the race.
In another race sometimes the turbo & boost seemed to be struggling to kick in after 3 minutes of running.
Could this be a blown capacitor or do I just have to factory reset the speedo?
Thanks

Check all solder joints too. A friend had a problem with his RS last night that turned out to be a poor solder joint on the RS post that was about to give out.

Checked solder joints and they seem fine. Did a factory reset and changed the sensor cable.
Thanks for the tips guys. Much appreciated

What will cause the cap to blow up? Last night running RS pro with Trinty duo 3 with blinking mode and change to TP 3. In the beginning motor started to humming then all the sudden the cap blow up. The timing on motor around +4.

surge under a load,make sure there is nothing binding the drive train
The motor should never hum while sitting there.
couldnt resist
for Android phones/devices on the other hand, there is no real issue. getting an android phone to talk to the Tekin hotwire is only a couple hours of work... and with knowledge of what you need to say to the hotwire (using ported code from the existing windows app)... a couple of days effort should be enough to bang out a working app, add to that some testing time and a short closed beta, and 1000s of happy customers could sell their crazy windows netbooks and buy another RS!
even an amature could hack this $h!t together with the right information! roflmao...

The motor started humming when I half throttle it. When I gun it the cap just blown. The drive tran was smooth nothing was binding. After the cap blown everything return to normal but I won't run it until I replace the cap. Better safe than sorry.
Ok, it sounded different the first time.
If you can't find the stock cap pick up a 16v 1000uf cap as Jamie suggested.

Can't find neutral
Apologies if this has been asked before...
I have a Sanwa Super Exzes transmitter fitted with a Spektrum 2.4 module. The receiver is Spektrum. This setup has worked with Novak, LRP, Hobbywing etc over the years. Servo is Futaba 9550.
I installed a brand new RS speedo, connected to a Novak ballistic 17.5 motor. During the setup it could not find neutral - lights kept flashing.
Tried a different receiver, then a different 2.4 transmitter module then a spare Exzes transmitter. Still no neutral.
Tried my sons Super Exzes with a Spektrum 2.4 module, found neutral straight away!
I really don't want to buy a new transmitter. Any ideas?
