Dang it 

No man we’re good there. Haven’t even run it yet. Hmmm… it’s rated for 6s. That’s good, think I finally found it’s home.OMG when I first saw this thread I thought it was the mm2 I sold ya..sorry for your loss,coulda been worst
Kinda wish I'd kept that mm2..it seamed way more powerful than the mmx6s I have...I ran 107mph on 4s with that esc in mini-typhon,then I put xlx in it an car was slower than it was with that mm2..an xlx log showed like 230a on that run...that tells me that mm2 was good for at least 200a..Best I've gotten out mmx6s is 210a and that mm2 gave me some goood better #'s..No man we’re good there.

Yup could have been a total loss so all good. Can a battery on its way out short an esc like this? Or can a motor short it out? I’ve heard, I think, that a bad servo can do this? I’ve decided to make this a good learning lesson so am pondering on it…
It’s like I was trying to use ‘good’ as much as I could in one paragraph in a self soothing manner![]()
Buddy…you did me a true solid on that one and I will happily sell it back to you if you want. Same price and you cover shipping if you don’t mindKinda wish I'd kept that mm2..it seamed way more powerful than the mmx6s I have...I ran 107mph on 4s with that esc in mini-typhon,then I put xlx in it an car was slower than it was with that mm2..an xlx log showed like 230a on that run...that tells me that mm2 was good for at least 200a..Best I've gotten out mmx6s is 210a and that mm2 gave me some goood better #'s..
Good thinking.It’s like I was trying to use ‘good’ as much as I could in one paragraph in a self soothing manner![]()
No,I really want to see you enjoy it.i had my fun with it..throw it in the noto,it'll run much better than the spectrum, especially now.lolBuddy…you did me a true solid on that one and I will happily sell it back to you if you want. Same price and you cover shipping if you don’t mind![]()
Beats me, first time I’ve had this happen. It acted funny for a couple seconds. Specifically it jerked forward and wouldn’t turn, I remember. Then it stopped and as I hit the trigger smoke poured out. So I’m thinking motor or servo but hell, what do I know? I’ll pull it apart and look closer as I dissect things (for fun of course). Oh, and the battery looks like it…pulled apart (?) somewhat inside where the leads connect. I’ll look at it closer before I throw a brick at itIf it was a possible "bad" servo.. Wouldn't you have noticed it not responding correctly first..
Before it caused the ESC to burn up??
Cool, then I need ponder no longerIt was the esc.ive had them do the exact same thing..loss power,start glitching,then up in smoke like it's 4.20pm.✌.I've burnt up some escz..I'm a pro at it
Most all the rest sound like a jet taking off...I bet the jet sound is the mosfets exploding..xlx2 don't have exposed mosfets..not sure it has mosfets at all..can't see themIt was the esc.ive had them do the exact same thing..loss power,start glitching,then up in smoke like it's 4.20pm.✌.I've burnt up some escz..I'm a pro at it.if I could just hear a esc go up I could tell which one it was...lmao...xlx2 will sound like bacon sizzling first.....![]()
Took me a while to find, here ya go.
