Hey Guys,
Seaking 180 ESC Issues
I just wanted to pass this along in case anyone else has experienced this.
After my boat flipped and partially submerged in the water I started experiencing strange things.
1) The boat didn't arm properly
2) When it armed it would not run at full throttle
3) The motor would just chatter at times.
After I pulled the ESC and was about to throw it out I decided to remove the plastic box/cover on the bottom.
Sure enough it had water in it. (It's suppose to be waterproof).
So I dried everything out and coated it with corrosion-X , I then siliconed the white gasket with black rtv silicone. Now she works fine.
So in case there are weird things going on after a water submersion check that lower section with the (4 screws to remove it) cover/white gasket. :Peace_Sign:
