[patch]

MadDog,

I would go over you connections. Make sure they are all tight, and your batteries are fully charged, and make sure you programmed your controller. Checkout this forum for programming your controller. But what you described is not normal.

With brushless there is a thing called cogging. The is like a motor that stutters at first when you apply very little throttle but then goes away after a certain point when giving it more throttle.

Could be weak batteries or signal from your TX.

I know my brushless was ticking loud when I first tried it. It was due to my batteries not being fully charged. My fault.

Can you give us more info on the truck? Gearing, tires, batteries, etc.
