Losi LST E-Conversion Kit

[Mozzy]

You may not have damaged anything, the motor mesh may have moved. That's happened to me in the past. I have beaten the crap out of my truck & never had the transmission or diffs let go. They are still the stock LST2 stuff.

I don't think your battery is able to cope with the required amp draw. You should increase both the C rating & mAh/capacity of the pack.

Always have batteries that can deliver at least 20% more power than you require.

I use the Turnigy 6S 4000mAh 40C packs & they barely get warm.

As for 'calming things down' adjust the power setting lower in the ESC.

Spoon feeding people is not my idea of education. Do some research, Prof. Google is there for a reason.

Here are a few links which you should read before asking anymore questions. The first one is pretty good & has pics. The rest are just forums.

I know you mean well, I've been reading everything I can find on this stuff. I checked the gear mesh, spurs and pinion look fine. mesh seems okay. I'll have to tear it down when I have the chance to check it out more. I think hitting the palm tree at full speed didn't help it :) It was far out and I didn't judge it right and smacked into the tree.

Anyway, The battery at the end of the pack is warm and nothing else so I think its okay.

I can't calm it down with the current ESC, but I think the gearing needs to be changed. otherwise it will wheely all the time with no end in sight.

I used to race all sorts of brushed cars 20 years ago, I'm just not really familiar with this one when it comes to setting up this brushless conversion.
