Senton Arrma senton 3s

[harry26363]

hello, around 6 months ago I brought the Arrma senton. I put upgrades in it with the Hobbywing Ezrun kit. Includes the following: max 10 esc and the 3660 brushless motor 4000kv. I have just tried turning it on and my esc is just giving me solid and flashing red lights and no fan spinning. I only have steering and no throttle.

Someone please help

You have to bind the radio to your new esc. Look binding up in the radio/reciever manual.

You either wired the receiver wrong or have a faulty esc or motor

You have to bind the radio to your new esc. Look binding up in the radio/reciever manual.

Done that already still nothing

Everything plugged in correctly? Steering servo might be causing this problem. Try a different servo if you have one. Might seem good but it's not.

I have just tried re doing the esc like pairing it to what it should do and still getting flashing red lights and solids

Look in the hw manual and see what those blinks mean
Are you trying with a fully charged lipo. LVC might be set high on the esc.
Like someone else said might be bad out of the box. Contact Hobby wing.

Double check that your throttle trim knob is centered on the radio.

Done all that and also re configured it. I recon the esc has blown and might have to buy a new one

That sucks!! Been their, Before I had a quality soldering iron. I soldered a new plug end on a brand new hw combo same as yours. Cold solder job desolderd itself and fried my 2 week old esc.

It’s also a shame u can’t buy the esc anywhere by itself as it’s a combo.

Check out jennysrc.com and look at the team Corally esc. They are rebranded hw motor and esc,good stuff better than spectrum junk.

I had a similar problem on my kyosho and it sounds like the esc is blown

Do u know what caused it? Over power, too much use, or just ware and tear

For mine, I got sand in it. But it sounds to me you used a battery that was too high voltage

For my esc it says on it, it can run 2-4s lipo’s and this happened like 4 months after I got it

Could have been faulty, could have overheated, wiring could have come undone, it would help if you posted pics

Did you wire your motor correctly?

+1
Try disconnecting the servo altogether and see if the the ESC gets you some throttle. If it does, The servo is bricked. If not, the ESC is probably bricked.
The fan might have broken by itself prior and caused an overheated ESC... A possibility there.
You may have the wrong ESC Amps in there. There were 2 Max 10's, an 80 amp and 140 amp.
Is yours the G2 version??
