Started up, jumps forward, dome doesn't spin. Red light. I have fully stripped all the wiring and ensured it is labled and seated correctly I have the recommended batteries - [i][i]•Brand: Samsung SDI •Model: 30Q •Size: 18650 •Chemistry: INR •Nominal Capacity: 3000mAh •Nominal Voltage: 3.6V •Discharge: 15A Max Continuous •Positive: Button Top •Protected: No •Rechargeable: Yes •Dimensions: 18.23mm x 64.78mm •Weight: 46.1g they are fully charged.

Can you check your battery's are making full contact with the positive contacts of the battery box. Current builds:-C57,Zero, Lamborghini Countach, Caldercraft HMS Agamemnon,Robi,R2-D2, MFH Cobra .

I can confirm that they are making contact correctly on all 6 batteries, after a long night stripping down again and re confiming that everything is labled and plugged in correctly it now does the same as neofutures does in his video - https://www.youtube.com/...J4&feature=youtu.be

Ive ordered a replacement MCU, im waiting for it to arrive, hopefully thats where the issue is. it would be nice to get some replication and feedback from the mods as a few people have the exact same issue.

I have this problem still and posted it on the 17/12 i have check everything ...four times!, i was also told that using protected batteries would cause a problem with the MCU but other people have this problem and they used unprotected batteries, i replaced them with unprotected ones now but he problem persists so the problem may be with a faulty MCU i have order a new one and have now stripped my R2 in preparation, the current MCU looks fine no bent pins or anything like that, so i await the new MCU and hope my problem end there

Success
After receiving a replacement MCU and installing it I have got r2 to work.
self test doesn't quite do as it says it should but once it gets past it I have full functionality.
I surmise it must have been a bad batch of MCU issues.
