1/10 Xcelorin S Esc HELP

[win1]

I am having trouble getting my esc to take the final set.It goes through all of the setup steps right up to where I shut off the esc then turn it back on.This is where my trouble starts.When I turn it back on all the the lights are flashing where I should only have a solid blue and yellow light on.Any help would be appreciated.Thanks Rick

I would be sure the Sensor wire is plugged in. If it is, you may want to try a different sensor wire.

My best suggestion was the last one. A second thought is that sometimes if your throttle channel is reversed on the transmitter, the ESC won't be able to store the proper endpoints, so you may want to check that setting.

The sensor wire runs from the motor to the esc. There is a little socket on the esc with quite a few pins in it, about 6 I think, and a similar one on the motor, the wire connects them together. On some traxxas motors the port is on the front but behind a cover, which you have to remove.

Hope this helps.

Which Xcelorin ESC do you have (model number)? If you do not have that info, can you take a few photos?
