No, Paul was good enough to let me borrow his son's ESC from his truck. I wanted to check my stuff again because of some revelations about the motor I was running at the time. It was dropping off rapidly and it wasn't the battery. After I changed motors it was ok. So re-installed my Novak GTB, to see if it worked. It would at first, but then it would have to be nudged a little to continue running, I don't have a extra sensor wire, but I have several other Novak ss motors, 21.5ss, 17.5ss, and a 13.5ss brushless. Was gonna try the 17.5ss and see what happens. The Losi 17.5 Xcelorin brushless I have in it now may not be as compatiable as the ss motors.
Sorry didn't mean to hijack the thread....

Greg, Like Billy said I did talk to him about Novak. I did switch back to Novak bc of the fact they have the best customer service in the industry. Plus, if you get their newer esc's with the xdrive you will see how smooth they are and the fact I don't need to bring a laptop to the track or have to dig out a program box just to make a single change to the esc.
I would def get ahold of Novak about your esc. I'm sure they will have you send in your esc. But I've seen them give a brand new esc to a dude that sent in a esc that was out of warrenty.
Billy- I got a laugh out of your picture. "Were talking bout PRACTICE man" LOL
Anyways, Greg I hope this helps you a little bit.
Thanks, DC

I watered the track last night. We have a couple places that will hold water. Just try to soak the water up with a rag or something instead of sweeping if there are any puddles.
