When I was flying the other day the engine suddenly stopped and I had to auto my heli safly down to the ground. The behavior I'm seeing from the speed control is not listed anywhere so I guess I need a little bit of help to diagnose what's wrong with it.
I'm using it in my TT Raptor 50 v2 along with the Z-Power Z50T 2core 600kv Brushless engine and a 10s 3700mAh pack from Flightpower. What happens when I plugin in the pack is that the speed control first flash 3-4 times very fast, then 11 or 12 flashes not quite so fast and to finish off the same 3-4 flashes as it started with. After that, nothing. No beeps and the engine doesn't turn at all. If I increase the throttle it starts to flash at even intervals, kind of the same speed as the 11 to 12 ones above. Same thing happens if I plug in a different engine I have laying around(that I know is orking). I've also tried with a different receiver and that didn't help. Plugin n a servo on the throttle channel gave me the exact movement on the servo as I expected(0-75-75-75-75 as throttle curve).
Updating to the latest software using the castlelink didn't help. I'm able to enter programming mode (except that I don't here any tones, only the led flashes).
Any thoughts of what could be wrong?
