Unhappy What Fried?

I was driving my Mini-LST in some snow after doing a bad job of waterproofing, when one of the servo's shorted. I unplugged everything as fast as I could. I think some other stuff died too. I put in a fresh battery and nothing will turn on. HELP!

Sounds to me that it could be your esc man........if you have another one you might want to try that out.

Yup it does sound like something BAD happened .....like Al was saying your speedo is likely gone or some of the other electronics. They do not like water at all.

When you tried another run, did you make sure all of the water was gone? You would have to had opened everything up to get it all out. One of the hassle's of running thru water or snow.

Good luck

I went with another stocker. I also got some metallic red and sliver paint for a new clear body, and I have candy green and black at home. Any ideas on paint schemes?
