Hello
I have the above Seaking 60A esc in a mini boat.From few days now, when connected to the batteries, is not detecting the right number of cells (3s) only 1 and is making only one beep.
Otherwise it seems to work ok. I have tried on auto setting and also setting manually the number of cells, still the same thing.
Any ideas? Maybe you have experienced this before? Please advise.
Regards

Is it calibrated to the radio correctly?

Just a quick update to let you know that I found out what was the problem with my ESC.
When the LVC is disabled, the ESC is not counting the cells anymore.
Once I have set the LVC back to 2.8V the counting started again...
So I am guessing that the only purpose of the cells count is to know the voltage when to cut off.
