Is that a bad thing? I am just trying to protect it.

i dont think that is a bad thing as long as you take the tape off every once an a while to check on the wires i actually cover some wires myself with electrical tape and so far it hasnt had any ill effects

Electrical tape gets really gummy and messy, especially when it gets hot. Unfortunately, I can't think of anything else to use that would be easily removeable short of encasing the whole thing in a box and sealing the wire entry points while providing cooling for the heatsink.

I need to get shrink wrap in a variety of sizes and practice!

Thanks again for the reply

Thanks a lot. LOL

Was yours new when it died? At least you got to crash it first. I have only done a few speed runs on pavement.

Caps seem to be connected.

I don't know if this make a difference, but I just hooked up the stock titans and esc and it ran like a champ. Motors and controllers were barely warm after a solid 15 minute session.

The good news is that the new chassis and shock position work extremely well!!!:027:

Yeah it was at the end of last month before I got the 12020. I had a lot of bind when I damaged the 9920. No bind with 12020.

i think your motor is the problem.

At this point it seems that way. Maybe I'll get lucky and BK will take the hit instead of me $$. Pipe dream - probably.

Have you took your motor apart and made sure the winding hasn't come loose in the motor. I had a motor started cogging and missing like yours. It was after a real bad crash. I kept the magnet or rotor for a screw holder. :D The motor will tap apart pretty easy. Just to let you know.

Thanks for the idea. I'll let Mike look at it. I have messed up enough stuff already.

Thanks again!

Well it is not hard to do it. I did one by accident. The motor slipped out of my hand hit the floor on the end shaft and boop it knocked the end bell off.
