Default Mythical blinking LED's

Good afternoon everyone,

I just purchased a new Ice 50 ESC and have it installed on my t-rex 450 and I've successfully programmed it thru the computer software and have flown a couple of packs through it but have yet to see those mythical LED's blink.

I sitting here looking at it and for the life of me don't even see any LED's.

does anyone have a picture of an Ice50 and the LED location?

Thanks!

Thanks minititinflyer !

I spent more than a few hours searching the interweb for that very bit of information and never could find a suitable answer. I was beginning to wonder if the ESC I had was defective or not since I couldn't see any LED's on it to save my life.

I finally had to turn out the lights to actually see the LED's in action so I know that they do work but then must ask the $64,000 question, why place them on the back side of the controller where you can't see them?

Thanks again!
