I took my new BBY rigger out for test run this morning, boat ran awesome. HV200, 1527 1.5y 825rpm, 12s & oct 2050 prop. it didnt take long to cover the pond on my first full throttle pass and was coasting pretty fast toward shore, I accidentally pushed the trigger to brak to try and slow it down(habbit from cars i guess). I had no motor movement after that. pulled up the log and amp at full thr was 82 amps, when i hit the brakes it shows 345 amps. I had reverse diabled. anyone know why it killed the esc?

Have you tried resetting the ESC? Not sure why but I have had my 240 come back afterwards.
Was there any sign of water inside the hull? The sudden slowdown could have tossed a drip at it. -
Just tried resetting, did not work.
Boat was dryComment

Look up the upgrade that needs to be done to some of these things on castles site. The jarring could've caused this.
Does it smell smoked??Last edited by srislash; 02-16-2014, 02:42 AM.Comment

I found the service advisory http://www.castlecreations.com/suppo...1201-foam.html
Apparently the two boards can become unplugged and therefor shutting it down. Just taking shots here.Comment

This is a brand new esc that has the foam installed already. I also did the newer firmware update when I did the reset.Comment

And no there is no smoke smellComment

Have you tried another motor to verify it is indeed the ESC?Comment
