i think you fried your range... your antenna wire or something touched a battery contact maybe. try checking out your range and if it is really short then you now have short range which sucks.

then you can join the "short range club" i am a premier member.... fried like 2 cars.
oh btw, try searching for "extened range" on these forums, it might help you with your problems...if it is a range issue

For 12 bucks, buy yourself a board/recevier combo from RS. Refer to CJ's xmod parts list, and it should be pcb/recevier assembly, or something like that. It's 12 bucks with shipping.

I dismantled my Xmod about a month ago and the same thing happened to me. I heard a soft hissing noise and a little bit of smoke came out of the ESC, so I just took out the batterys.
