    Sounds like you've already taken it for a spin. straightening the handlebars and removing gravel from the fairing is a good 'go faster ' treatment, Ive found.

    past tense, paddy.
    1995. In all the years and almost 500000kms I'd ridden, dodging kangaroos, emus. koalas, sheep , cows, learners, women with kids, old farts with hats, .. ... the metro bus driver cruising oblivious to his surroundings drove over me, stopped at the stop lights ( the lights were red )
    Yes, it hurt, and some parts still do ( the bits that are left )
    Did the smart thing, now drive a lump 4WD with cargo space for my man toys.

    Superbowl ... isnt that where Govt keep all 'crazy' people together ?
    I admire how the supervisors hand out novelty prizes to the ones who dont fall over so much..makes em feel special.

    My radio station announced "Green Bay Packers had won SuperBowl'..
    She then asked what sport is at Superbowl?
    "I know , I know ! " I screamed at the car's wireless... " They play CRICKET... you moron .'


    :hugs:

    I admire the athletes who compete at superbowl.
    Dont take my ribbing to heart.

    hehehehehehe



    I know I'll never get caught... I have a face people prefer to forget !

Snow White, who was following along, peered over the edge of the steep chasm and called out to the fallen dwarfs. From the depths of the dark hole a voice returned, "The Bears are Super Bowl contenders."
    A. Snow White thought to herself, "Thank God... at least Dopey's survived!"


    Q. Why do Bears players keep their Wonderlic results on their dash boards?
    A. So they can park in the handicap spaces.

    Q. What do you get when you put the girlfriends of a dozen Bears fans in one room?
    A. A full set of teeth!

    Q. What do you call a Bears fan with half a brain?
    A. Gifted!

    Q. Why are the Bears like a possum?
    A. Because they play dead at home and get killed on the road.

    This is the best thread on this site, as many participants are sanctioned as insane, apart from the Scotsman?

    Paddy, of Mulgrave St Brothel, received his latest mail order present soon after Christmas....
    He escorted her inside and wasnt long before she was stark naked, cradled in his arms.
    Biggest pair of ( fans) he has seen since his days as mop+bucket guard in Hustler's mammography appreciation class.
    Anyway, without a word , Paddy attaches her to his Pc.. barely wiggled his index finger near the go button and she'd gone off with a Bang !
    Cor, that's some serious foul play there Pad.

    If you tell me what vulgar things you did to her, I may persuade her eyes to light up once again.

    condolences, mate.

    Well you are on target when you say you will make her eyes light up. After I connected her to the PC I set about programming her for some serious action. She had a flashing blue eye under her big sunglasses. I saved the settings that I thought would give me maximum pleasure. I took her to her new bed in the Black Douglas and plugged into her. As hard as I tried I could not make her cum, no wrong word, I should have said go. Because of her inaction there was no movement in my motor. We both just lay there and I was frustrated to say the least. I took her back to the PC and plugged into her but this time there was no flashing blue eye under the sunglasses. She appears dead. A bit like making love to June really.
    I hope this helps. In the mean time I am being unfaithful with another Chinese one but I do not know what will happen when I stick the big 6 inch, oops I mean 6s into her.

    Holy crap, I thought my 19 page code was complex.. this blighter has 64 per mode (x4) !

    1. How many cells did you connect when usb programming ?
    2. How many cells were in Black Douggie when you tried to start up ?
    3. What V is in black Douglarse for Rx ?..4.8v 6.0v 7.4v ... LiPo bec or NiCd/Mh ?
    4. Did you set throttle endpoints via programmer, and confirm on Tx, or did you try so on connect in Douggie ( where nothing happened ) ?
    5. Do you use anti-zap battery connect ?

    I read that if the 'on/off' switch is 'on' when you connect the battery.. irrespective state of Rx function.. the unit is 'lights out'... call the coroner.
    Didya, huh ?

    What's the gripe with MGM warranty ?.. pm me the details.

    Nah, the brick didnt cost me a cent... !

    Once I finish stroking her ample fans, will look deeper without physical dismemberment in lieu possible warranty from land of ample bosom and amber fluids.

    LMK If not warrantiy-able.. Id rip out the fans/sink and use a custom watercooled sink, reduce size to 1/2 height !

    I really do not want to send it back to those pricks Wayne. If I have to read all the crap that came with that thing it aint gunna happen.
    Lets just Australianize it and make the bloody thing user friendly and water cooled as you said.
    I will take some pictures of the warranty and send you those a little later.

    Controller is turned-on by open contact of the switch or by connecting the accumulators (applies to versions without the switch).
     When you use more than 4 Lipol cells (more than ca 16V), use „antispark― resistor for first battery connection, see here: How to prevent sparking when connecting batteries with higher number of cells

    Oops you caught my greasing my shaft. Now the keyboard is covered in grease. Oh well it wont rust when I spill my coffee on it I guess.

    Was I supposed to read all that crap? An $800 esc and I have to read instructions??? I spend $79 on a Chinese one from HK and it comes without instructions and works fine and is as good as my Hydras (well if they laid the wires down flat it would be). Guess I am going to be waiting for the Chinese to make one without instructions. My Chinese wife came without instructions and apart from sex she works just fine.

    20 page manual and 14 page warranty exclusions on included CD.

    The millisecond I pop off her sunshades for a close up peek at her eyes. she's a non warranty job.

    Lotsa monee waisted for no read theyre wonderus attampt at Cz to Engrish manuel..


    All external measurements I make come back within parameters.. but without access inside it's really an edumacated guess what you screwed.

    End of day it's your $800 paperweight.. your call.

    btw.. if circuit level damage.. easy.. if coding lost , nuthn I can do

    Go for it Wayne. Be brave and take her sunnies off.
    Warranty is one thing but they talked me out of it when they took so long to post it originally. If it has to make a return trip and sit on someones workbench waiting for the prick to repair it then lets do the Ozzie thing and get the scalpel and open her up good Doctor.

    What is your number Chuck?

    Yeah I know what you mean Chuck but it is not the worst thing that has happened to me in FE boating.
    Probably my own fault for not reading the instructions well anyway. If I have to read a book to find out how to operate something then that is not going to happen. I like plug 'n play. MGM might make good controllers but when it comes to an instruction book they could learn from the old saying to Keep It Simple Stupid (KISS). What they can do it kiss my a$$
    The Black Douglas done a runner on me this morning and slammed into the bank at about 40 mph. Dirt all over the hull but the only damage is the motor mount came loose. A bit of epoxy and back to the water. That is one tuff hull. Thanks Rob if you read this.

    Im fairly sure if Douglas slammed into a bank at 40mph he'd have a sticky brown deposit on his sporon .. and lots of bemused onlookers..
