Battery / speed controller question

[team death]

Thank's Gary
I had a friend look at the ESC after it went pop on the battery connection terminals
and they said the current limit should have been set at max or 0, I dont believe nial
changed the setting prior to plugging in the batteries.
I may contact Rory and see if he can help -dont really fancy sending it to europe
or USA.
Very Good question Katch
The radio reciever was not connected in any way-was this a major mistake ?
and neither were the motors
So after reading up a little on RC sites, it seems that the speed controller will
not arm without reading a radio signal from the radio control rather than go
berzerk due to lack of signal ? or even blow the ESC-any more info welcome.
