Just about got everything swapped over to the new fuselage, checking all electronics as I go... I went to power up the motor and nothing. The ESC is the Hobbywing Flyfun 150A-HV-8S with no BEC. It comes with the a Hobbywing UBEC 5A, Max 7.5A output. The UBEC comes on with the appropriate line per the manual. The ESC flashes twice, pause then flashes twice again. This pattern is continuous. No beeping no sound whatsoever.
So I plug in the Hobbywing programming card to perhaps reload the settings. As per the instructions and the first time I did it, I plugged in the 4.8v reciever battery, then the short lead programming lead on the ESC to the programming card, then per the instructions just like when I initially programmed it I plugged in the main battery, the first time the card lit up and I proceeded to program it. This time, the card doesn't light up at all.
It's Christmas of course, so no help from MRC today, so I thought I'd get a jump on possible advice from the forum here.
Guessing this may be the reason for my mishap...I'd hate to think that after only 4 flights my 139.00 ESC has kicked the bucket...
