I had a hard landing (broken strut only damage) with my E550 today and now my ESC will not initialize. This is the stock ACE BLC-75.

This would happen before occasionaly requiring disconnecting and reconnecting the battery.

I hate to buy a new ESC and have that not being the problem.

Any ideas on what the source of the problem is? Something must have been damaged but everything looks OK.

Thanks!!

I tried lowering the throttle trim. No change. It is still acting like the throttle is not set to idle and will not initialize.

Any other ideas?

Thanks!!

Pete,

While you're waiting for them to send it back (mine took almost 3 months) I'd get a Castle 45.

Guys,

I tried re-binding - no luck.

You may be right about the BEC being the problem. I'll check that.

Thanks!
