No, only tried the one motor. By the time I figured out that it was dying.... It was dead and I couldn't try anything else. Although, I did pull the Quark 125 from another truck and set it up in the buggy so I could run it tomorrow. The motor has no issues w the Quark so Im assuming it not the motor. Its a Lehner 1940/7 btw. I was planning oin running 4s or 5s on it, but i never even got to test it with voltages that high. I was doing the setup with a 3s pack to get through the programing and bench testing and it just quit working. So I dont know what happened.

Anyway. I hope they replace it quickly. This is very annoying to get a new toy and have it broken righ out of the box.
