I have 2 brushless rustlers and both are blinking red twice, a pause, red twice. I've gone through the instructions and I cannot figure it out. Can you guys please let me know what I need to do?
I appreciate the help, Allen

What batteries are you using?
Are you putting a fully charged battery pack in the Rustler?
My initial thoughts are you're using NiMh batteries with the ESC's low voltage cutoff (LVC) turned on.

Rusty, I'm using a fully charged 2s lipo. I down loaded the instructions. I can successfully move from the NiMh mode to the lipo mode. I have both cars in the lipo mode. I'm going to take them to my hobby shop tomorrow. I will give you an update of what they find. I'm trying to prepare the cars for a trip to see family over New Years weekend.
Merry Christmas, Allen

I found the answer to my programming challenges. The switch was stuck. I pulled the esc, took the 4 screws out and split the case open on the esc. I took a small screw driver, pushed the blue button out, cleaned it and reassembled it. Good as new. I never would have descovered this with out the diagnosis from the hobby store in Modesto Ca.
Thanks for the help, Allen
