    spartans dead....help

    Alright...I just recived the new motor and esc from traxxas....I've taken it out twice now and let me say Damn this thing is fast..and both runs ended in a blow over...but the problem I'm having now is the rx just flashes when I plug the batteries in...any ideas on what the issue is...oh in both blow overs the boat was completely submerged.

    And the batteries are fully charged lipos..3s of course

    Try to re-bind your transmitter to reciever.I had to do that once with mine.Let me know if that works for you.

          i think he meant to say receiver was soaked. Try drying your receiver completely and re-bind it to the transmitter.

              If your receiver still isn't working, put it in a zip lock bag of uncooked rice. Let it sit overnight, and it should be good to go...
