I recently installed a new servo on my Arrma Talion 6s. In order to so I had to remove the ESC. After putting it all back together I turned it on and tested the steering. Everything seemed to be working fine. When I took it outside and tried to take it for a spin in the parking lot, at which point the ESC burst into flame. Any idea what would make this happen? The fire started when I drove it through a little bit of water, if that matters.
Also, since I'm going to need a new ESC can anyone recommend an upgrade? I'm not looking to spend a lot of extra money so cost is a big factor.
Thanks in advance!
