i no since i got my 2200kv castle Neu motor on saturday with the new software is having a lot of issues.

so i might have some thing wrong with the MMM. either the motor or the esc. ****ing great. i dont know what the **** is wrong with it. AHHHHHHH!

every time i drive the maxx now, its not as loose as it used to be. its doesnt sound good anyways. im scared that something is ruined yet every time i let go of the throttle the truck sounds like its grinding on something, or it flips. and when i just lightly touch the break, the truck goes into a ****ing barrel roll. WTF????

please help me!!

i just dont know what to do anymore .

i took the motor out of the truck, and the truck rolls fine, no grinding noises or anything. yet when i put the motor back in it starts grinding again.

guys, im gonna cry!!

i just dont want this truck to turn into my revo. infact im not going to let it.

could it be that there is no grease left in the transmission or the diffs?

It SHOULDN'T be the tranny, because the tranny rotates smoothly when the motor is not connected, right? I thought SuicideNeil explained in another thread somewhere that that's the difference between a slotted and an unslotted motor, those defined positions in it's rotation. Then, my guess is, that after you count the gear ratio from the wheels to the motor, that feeling is MUCH MUCH more apparent. It sounds and feels awful to me, but I've figured that it's just the way it is. Someone correct me if I'm wrong....this is exactly what is happening, yet it didnt do it in the afternoon until i went to do the new torque control setting on castle link which got me to take the motor a way from the spur gear. then i put the mototr back and did the gear mesh between the spur and thats when it sounded aweful.

theres gotta be a way to fix the sudden breaking and the grinding. with all my expierences in RC, this does not sound 100% normal at all.? there is some thing seriously wrong.

either its the Motor, ESC or the Transmission and diffs.

some bodys gotta have an idea? come on guys. help a guy out?

im still going to have to get some grease because my transmission is probley dryer then before i put the system in.
well i have the drag brake disabled and the brake it self is set at 30%. its not much braking at 10% because i have already tryed it.
and i really dont know why the problem just started all of a sudden too.

im not having flex issues at all.

that is my issue so far!!!!

Brushlesswonder...

The new software is not release software -- so it isn't put into production units. It's Beta software, for people to try out and give comments.

You can always downgrade back the previous version if you are having issues with it.

Yes, there is sort of a lurch then go to it (I call it a sort of chop or detent). It is due to the design of the motor, it's similar to brushed. the wires are wound on iron cores but in the can instead of the armature shaft. I have a Neu 1515/2.5d, similar to your but wound different, and that is normal


Work because i gotta, play because i wanna

People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise
