@Edough13 I fought the exact same issue, also my first try didn't work. Second time I left slightly more solder on esc tab and used more liquid Flux. Held it after the bullet set down for about three more seconds until I saw it bubbling somthing, probably epoxy. It was a little scary, though I might Ave messed the esc up.
 
2s pb for vendetta

Got the V1 out for a few test passes. Nothing spectacular plus I’m geared very conservative. I just wanted to make sure she was running straight and to work out my jitters. 🤣. Ran perfect despite a splitter issue. Hopefully I’ll get the new build out next Saturday. Video got cut off at the end.

Got some cars out today. And let me tell you I was very rusty and nerves got to me a lot today.
Have to get my speed confidence back again after not really making any runs for three weeks.


Arrma Limitless 4s dual
New pb’s 158mph and 159mph
Incredibly happy with this car today. So close to my 160mph goal I set for myself, this one made my day really.

Ran my Carbondetta as well today with my old 8k packs just to try and make a clean pass, been almost a year since I drove this car and made a decent 160mph pass, shaking the dust off

Ran a few other cars as well just testing and tuning,
Ran a 170mph pass with my vte2 single motor 4080svm, still geared conservative from where I ended last season. This is essentially a base gearing to have this car be consistent and allow me to test some packs

For sure dude, progress is progress, we are still so early in the season and it’s been very inconsistent running as far as how often I can go out, 157 twice 158, then 159 is good with same gearing. I just have to do better with my throttle pull. The speed is there

Got out again today as with storms coming it'll be couple more weeks off. Made another 3s parallel pass with the Typhon but only ran 102 over 105 yesterday. Then attempted a 4s parallel pass but just after car passed me lost the spool grub damnit! Thankfully had room to weave and slow down to a stop without brakes😅. Lost grub at 107 just before 100% throttle so would have been close to 120 and a Typhon 4s PB.
