    Stuck on full throttle!

    Hi guys, need some help here, yesterday I was running my Geico then suddenly it jammed on full throttle and even if I disconnect the lipos and reconnect it still does it!
    Any ideas would be appreciated Thanks!

    if your lucky someone might reply , ,lol. you can try the guys above spamming the miss gieco that started as a hull thread , nothing there talking about has anything to do with miss geico ,its a open chat thread lol ,
    anyway it could be a number of things . did you try re calibrating your controller ? . set all your trims to neutral on the controller and try that ,, it takes 5min for the proboat esc to reset after you disconnect the lipos wait 5 min ,
    any water in the hull ? they are water proof the esc but you just never know how good of a job they do if any water found its way in you have problems .. .if still no luck try another radio / receiver ..mine lost steering after i got water in the hull on a flip over .servo failed with in 10 min
    and the MR200 Marine 2.4GHz receiver failed on me after first run , cost 50 bucks to replace , just stop working for no reason ,

      Looking at your arsenal of RC boats and land vehicles I am sure you did everything one can think of, I recently had the opposite problem, my Tactic 2.4 would not give me full throttle, I have a few other boats using the same system, this receiver ( new) is damaged/defective. But I ignored the obvious because in the past I never had a problem with the Tactic, so I went the other way and checked everything else, even bought a new motor. ( no regrets though)
      How did you bring the boat in? Was the boat on land when that happened? Glad you didn't lose your boat.
      By the way, the MR200 is NOT water proof where as the MR3000 is, hence twice as expensive.
      Too many boats, not enough time...

        Thanks guys will try to re calibrate, and I figured out if I held the throttle trigger in the reverse position it would stop!

          As a 2-channel sport version of the popular MR3000 marine receiver, the MR200 offers all the benefits of proven Spektrum technology while being specifically designed for boats. Thanks to conformal coating, it offers great protection against moisture in even the harshest marine environments. Compatible with all surface transmitters that feature the marine protocol, as well as DSM2™ aircraft transmitters, the MR200 is also the least expensive 2.4GHz receiver built specifically for marine applications.

          mr 200 Key Features

          2-channel marine-specific receiver
          Protection against moisture provided by conformally coated circuit board
          Simple and clean installation in most applications thanks to slim case design
          Dual switching feeder antennas
          Preset Failsafe system
          QuickConnect™

          says it is coated , for 50 bucks it would want to be water resistant some what ! the 300 is twice as expensive cause it can operate two esc for twin motor setups

          i have had all kinds of strange things happen to my boat ,the last video i posted as i was tapping the hatch down it started revving the motor ? I was like WTHE ??. sound like you bumped the throttle reverse switch on the controller , see how you go .
