That happened to me one time and needed a servo . This time though it’s an intermittent green flash which means overheated and didn’t come back . Steering works , fans work on the esc and motor , no throttle . Tried everything . It’s said the “mosfets” get fried or one does and it’s done . Common issue I guess on the spectrums , made by hobbywing supposedly for the arrmas . Prob cut the cost with a cheaper part inside like most companies do . A lot of said in comments thst htis has happened several times with arrmas 150 amp smart esc s and not to the retail hobbywing esc s . Thanks to Jenny’s or ot would be 3 x the cost but if it happens again I ll be going HW . Or if the warranty covers it this time I ll have an extra for something else for $65 and a 6s capable esc . The v2 was $20 more
Thank you thank you thank you. I was about to buy another esc. I would have never figured that out. Well my wheel would turn left all the time to, and stop the battery cell count.
I’ve had servos put the whole system. I couldn’t find a fix, but I always unplug everything and see if it works with nothing installed. I was shocked! Oh well, you figured it out!!!!!👍💯👊🍻
Thanks This is the only solution I have not tried. I will try it and let you know the results. Waiting on servo from Jenny's RC. I appreciate the video
Saved me so much frustration bruh! My S650 servo had gone bad and made my Spektrum 150A esc non-functional until I switched to a new servo (Eco Power ecp-110T). Now, thanks to you: my 6s converted infraction mega is alive again!
Your ESC is most likely toast. Once I went through all the BS with my Kraton now I always check each piece of electronics with a second set that I know all works properly . The batteries als
My Typhon 6s esc caught on fire .got a new one...mine workes..but it seems when the fire happened it shorted out the Reciever, as mine doesnt even light up...but if a new Reciever doesnt work..ill try this.. I took me 2hrs to fiqure it out..but glad you got yours working.
What is that secondary sound that is behind the beeping from the esc. My Team Corally Kronos has a spekrum esc that sounds the same and it drives me nuts. Is it the metal gears engaging or something? I'm new to the hobby but I've gone a little crazy with it and already have 10 or so other vehicles and none of them make the same sound. None of them rip like the kronos does spekrum motor and esc either though. Just curious if it's normal or if there's a way to make it not have that awful sound every time I turn it on.
@lawrencefournier686 right on.. I bought the kronos used on an eBay auction. It was super clean and ripped, but that sound had me thinking maybe there was a reason the guy wanted to sell it. I just bought a 1:8 scale team associated nomad DB8 without a single scratch even on the skid plates with 4× 4s batteries(only one ever opened that worked perfectly for 50 bucks on offer up. It looked like the guy bought a storage shed and was flipping all the stuff from the pictures. If he only knew what the thing was worth, he'd probably try to figure out the best way to kick himself in the nuts. When you Google it, the first thing that comes up is a typical price range, and it says 49 to 57 dollars. When you actually click on it, though, that's just for the body alone, so I suspect he saw that and didn't investigate further. I honestly kind of feel bad about it. One in the same condition with no batteries just sold on eBay for 7 hundred something. The only difference was it had the original box, but personally, I'll take the batteries.
Grazie per questo video! Ho avuto lo stesso problema con Arrma Felony 6S e nessuno riusciva a darmi un aiuto; ho provato di tutto inutilmente. Dopo aver visto il tuo video ho sostituito lo sterzo come hai suggerito e il problema si è risolto. 👍🏻👍🏻🔝 Thank you😉
I have the exact same problem , emailed Horizon and they sent me a new esc for free, I have not installed it yet; good thing I came across your channel so I’m just gonna order a servo from amazon. Great job! Thanks.
Mine won't even power on, it does nothing. The servo was very slow and going bad I'm wondering if it could fry the ESC I'm going to get another esc and servo to try. If anyone has solved the no power at all issue I would love to hear how you solved it, been scratching my head aswell.
I was thinking that binding the receiver again with new servo might be the fix. Perhaps the system didn't recognize the different servo and was expecting factory settings.
Yeah there is an issue where the s652 specifically shorts out the firma150 - happened in both my typhon and mojo - happens when it get wet. Hh should honer warranty on tis and the new shipped ones do not suffer from the same issue - alternatively- as you have you can install a new servo. Now servos from Jennys my have the same issue depending on the bath as they from rtr stock. Kicked my self once we figured it out - more people should talk about just to get people back up and running sooner
I have the Traxxas review 3.3 Nitro I tried switching up to the SpektrumDx5 and the remote only controls my steering, As it should but won’t work with my throttle servo. About a minute with the transmitter and truck on my throttle steers along with the wheel. Any tips
Sounds like you just need to reset your electronics then set all the setting up for throttle and end point adjustments. You can search RUclips for a vid on how there all tons. Search keyword for your brand controller.
You can check every last one in my videos that problem does not exist that is our first for me I'm sitting here dumbfounded I never thought the servo could just shut your whole experience down
Nor did I good sir! I tried every combo of different rx, tx, esc, and motor combos and that’s only thing that would work. I could get to setting up throttle and end points but would got partially through set up leaving out one setup option every time like no left steer or no throttle. It was very strange, but through process of elimination I was able to see what was doing what.
Yeah u need the smart battery with the gray single wire attached because it's not grounded without it.you cannot add random batteries with smart technology. It knows
That's not true at all I run normal batteries in my infraction and normal typhon 6s and it's works completely fine, all that grey wire is for is the telemetry for battery voltage.

What a legend!
You are a lifesaver, I never thought to check the steering servo
Thank you thank you thank you. I was about to buy another esc. I would have never figured that out. Well my wheel would turn left all the time to, and stop the battery cell count.
There is a video on this on the aarma forums and same problem and it was the same fix
I’ve had servos put the whole system. I couldn’t find a fix, but I always unplug everything and see if it works with nothing installed. I was shocked! Oh well, you figured it out!!!!!👍💯👊🍻
Thanks
This is the only solution I have not tried. I will try it and let you know the results. Waiting on servo from Jenny's RC. I appreciate the video
Please let the viewers know how it went and does it work now thnx
Bro your the real mvp just saved me my 4th of July this worked like a charm 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

Haven't had this problem yet, but good to know. Have the same whip, love this truck...
My Typhon doesn't do anything just power button lights up. No beeping, no steering, no esc lights, no receiver lights. Thoughts?

Same problem never even thought about servo. I changed out the servo soon as i bought the truck. Im gonna try the original one
What was the fix

It’s a normal spectrum thing. Probably just bouncing a signal to motor making sure is good to go!

Servo definitely something to look into my vendetta 3s done same and will update with fix

I have a Toro esc doing this I’m going to try it maybe just maybe fingers crossed 🤞🏻 👍🏻
I think the servo is overloading the receiver causing the power to the esc to drop then come back and cause a restart.
I also noticed just before this happened my servo was steering less and less
AWESOME!! You just made my day. Thank you sir. I wish I would have see your video 7 hours ago.
I have the exact same problem , emailed Horizon and they sent me a new esc for free, I have not installed it yet; good thing I came across your channel so I’m just gonna order a servo from amazon. Great job! Thanks.
How did it go do u remember
One hander jammer is going to be my new phrase for one handed operations ahahah
Bind/rebind radio w/receiver is what I did to fix same issue upon installing new ESC
Mine won't even power on, it does nothing. The servo was very slow and going bad I'm wondering if it could fry the ESC I'm going to get another esc and servo to try. If anyone has solved the no power at all issue I would love to hear how you solved it, been scratching my head aswell.
I was thinking that binding the receiver again with new servo might be the fix. Perhaps the system didn't recognize the different servo and was expecting factory settings.
I tried did try that while waiting for new esc to arrive. I recalibrated each piece as well
same problem with my brand new outcast... thanks man! solved it for me
I have the same ESC as you do, Is there a way to program it to have a Y splitter on the throttle connect to be able to use a servo break?
I’m sure they do. You could probably just get the one off the fireteam 6s!
Yeah there is an issue where the s652 specifically shorts out the firma150 - happened in both my typhon and mojo - happens when it get wet. Hh should honer warranty on tis and the new shipped ones do not suffer from the same issue - alternatively- as you have you can install a new servo.

Thanks for replying. The hobby store told us the wrong layout
Thanks for your video, realy helped me
Thanks, my servo sounded like it made a weird noise b4 it quit:)
Where did you put the loop ? Orange orange wire or black orange wire ?
Don’t think it matters. But I have tried both each way
I had this issue with my infraction. Hobby town replaced it under warranty. Such a silly scenario.
I had the same problem and I did the same thing, but all along it was the servo that gave out
You can check every last one in my videos that problem does not exist that is our first for me I'm sitting here dumbfounded I never thought the servo could just shut your whole experience down
Nor did I good sir! I tried every combo of different rx, tx, esc, and motor combos and that’s only thing that would work. I could get to setting up throttle and end points but would got partially through set up leaving out one setup option every time like no left steer or no throttle. It was very strange, but through process of elimination I was able to see what was doing what.
So what servo should I buy?
For an arrma 6s? There are so many options. If ya want a budget one : ZOSKAY 35kg high Torque Coreless Motor servo Metal Gear Digital
Good to know!!
You have to calibrate it on 1st instal. You didn’t. 😂
I tried that and resetting more times than I can count. The only solution was using a different servo.
You sound like 10th scale garage’s sidekick
Bahaha. Not sure who that it. I’ll have to check em out before I can tell if it’s a compliment or not!!! Lol
@@lawrencefournier686 it’s neither, just something I noticed.
Trim
Yeah u need the smart battery with the gray single wire attached because it's not grounded without it.you cannot add random batteries with smart technology. It knows
That's not true at all I run normal batteries in my infraction and normal typhon 6s and it's works completely fine, all that grey wire is for is the telemetry for battery voltage.
@@Nathan-qt2zithat’s a fact right there
Specktrum Smart my ass! Overpriced garbage. Keep em simple, just like our ladies!
