I have or had a LRP Sphere Comp esc(2 race old). I shipped it back 8-9 weeks ago & have had multiple conversations with employees of LRP. (1) We have no esc's in stock to replace yours. (2) We have had a trade show in Germany & will have them next week.(3)We still have no stock but will send you a original sphere.(4) we shipped your Sphere-comp replacement 03-09-06 (5) We have shipped your Sphere comp replacement 03/09/06.(6) sorry I left out were moving & have them all packed up! Well it's now the 16th & I still have no ESC! If you have had the same poor customer support from LRP keep it in mind when you are looking to make another purchase. Tim Jeffers

My LRP COMP lasted about 5 or 6 months before it burned up. I'm waiting on a replacement too. I sent mine back about 5 weeks ago.

I was using a 13.5. Temps were always below 135F.
Mine was not the '07 COMP.

I don't know for sure, but I think they may have worked out the bugs with the '07.
Good Luck. Keep us posted. I am not confident with the LRP's.

13.5 all the way to 180 deg (motor temp)original LRP Sphere NO problems over a year old.
4300 all the way to 175 deg (motor temp)original LRP Sphere NO problems 6 months old.
Set on the modified setting hole shots very nice.
Must be something in the comp.

Jake,
Depending on when/what/if I get something back from LRP, maybe we can work something out. No clue on when my LRP will be back though.

Did they ship you a new '07 COMP?
I'm curious what I may get out of them. When my COMP went south it was rather uneventful so I thought they may fix it or something.
Hi Guys,
I jusy bought a sphere comp 07 and wired up my 10.5 motor. Everything set up fine but when I tested it out in the street it would shut down after 3 seconds at full throttle. I tried re-soldering the motor, resetting the speedo, checking the connection of the sensor wire, and even gearing down a few teeth and installing the heat sink. It happens so fast the motor doesn't even get a chance to get hot.
Anyone have any other suggestions for me? Thanks.
