revo acting strange... NEW PROBLEM..

[BrianG]

I looked at your vid again and it looks like you have your motors hooked to the ESC in regular brushed mode (where it has reverse) because you are using the red and black ESC motor wires to the motors. It makes sense that it won't move because in hipower brushed mode, the ESC sends the same voltage pulses to all ESC motor wires at once. This means there is no voltage difference between the red and black wires and therefore no movement. :)

BTW: Hooking it up the way you did won't hurt anything, but if you wire it for hi-power brushed mode (with all three wires hooked together) but program the ESC for regular brushed, you WILL damage the ESC so be careful!
