Motor Question (Sound Clip) - RC-Monster Forums

Well if every time you lifted off the gas it applied the brake I would expect the brakes like to come on. I am curious if it does it with the gears on the motor or just free winding?

I agree. I think some investigation needs to be done to isolate the cause. If he has a diferent motor, I'd be interested to know what happens with that. Also, that motor on a diferent controller.

CHC is right, can you take the motor out of the truck and just run it on the bench and see if it still does it?

My spur gear came in early so I took it out for a run. And you know what? No sound from motor with the gears on! For the bearing cap I just placed electric tape over the end bell to prevent dirt from entering. (is that ok?) I was really happy with the run today with temps at 150 motor and 115 esc.

Second run lasted only 5 minutes because I ran it into a cinder block around 10 mph and snapped the front skid plate and bulkhead.

Good excuse to get the flm hybrid bulks and diff cups :)

LOL ! But he gets to upgrade! I dont think hes happy about breaking somthing:005:

I am happy to finally upgrade because I've been pondering over it for the last few weeks. The only thing I hate is that I can only get a few runs in before breaking something. This is my first BL setup and I'm not a good driver :(

Guess the only thing I really NEED now are arms & shock towers. What can I do to damage those parts?

Everyone on this forum has nice setups and I'm anxious to soon have one of them

Souns like it would be cheaper to invest in driving lessons. lol
WOT into a light pole or a 6 in curb for arms, towers, shocks, and bulkheads. I've recked em all at least once
