[RcJunkie13]

Went bad out of the box . Only the switch is bad. Don’t care abt the sensor wires cuz I can just use a card.

I've replaced a good few hobbywing ones.......r u putting a new switch on

 

[RcJunkie13]

Nah, just think I’ll bypass it, they don’t sell the spectrum switch, and I don’t wanna knockoff, if I join the wrong two, what happens?

If it melted on its own it should be covered under warranty. Call Horizon Hobbies.

I'd be tempted to ask if anyone local to you has a dead esc with the same switch on the likes of Facebook.

It also works on spectrum, someone in the comments tried, I’m starting to think hobbywing makes it for spectrum

 

[RcJunkie13]

Bought some connectors and I’m gonna try it tmrw

 

[RcJunkie13]

No smoke etc???

 

[RcJunkie13]

Charging up some batterys to test it rn
Im using cheap batterys

 

[RcJunkie13]

Plugged it in, got a Little magic smoke from where I joined wires, but doubt I ruined anything. Nobody here would happen to have a dead esc with a switch they can sell me?

 

[RcJunkie13]

Ok, it’s a TP 5660 and I need a 200a esc
This one is too suspicious
