Man that's not good... I would check over all the connectors.. maybe resolder anything not factory.

What happens if you reboot without unplugging the black wire? Does it only work again if you unplug/replug this wire?

I wonder if the caps are fried or something is wrong with the motor.

When you plug in the battery, is there a spark? There should be. If there is no spark, the caps are shot.

I don't know man... I have never seen anything like this with the stock setup.

Hold on now! What's more important; your ailing R/C or your G/F? You have your priorities all wrong! :)

Try setting the motor timing to "lowest"

t-maxxracer32 · 03:56 AM

lol my g/f always goes number one :005:

its on the lowest right now...

im going to go get some shrink wrap tomorow and make everything tight... i got wires goin everywhere.. hopefully that will help a little!

That so NOT racist...(note sarcasm)

bdebde · 02.17.2007, 02:59 AM

set it to "normal", run it, then set back to "lowest"

If it was running fine before, messing with the timing isn't going to fix anything. It MIGHT lessen the symptom, but I don't think it will fix the problem. I had a similar problem recently and it turned out that the Deans on my ESC was glazed over. I changed the plug and all was fine again.

t-maxxracer32 · 03:56 AM

well i am changing the deans once i get the shrink wrap tomorow...hopefully that is the problem...

Did you tried another battery pack?

t-maxxracer32 · 02.17.2007, 03:56 AM

ya they all do it.. the ones with less power (6 cell gp3300s) do it the worst... so idk really what it could be

Serum · 02.17.2007, 04:03 AM

You have got the LVC disabled? If yes; try enabling it and disabling it again.. Perhaps something is wrong with it...

t-maxxracer32 · 02.17.2007, 04:05 AM

idk ill check tomorow! bed time for me!!

thanks for all your help guys!

hey well i got bored of trying to fix it so i made a vid of what its doing. i think if i got rid of those wire things and either A. just soldered together the wire so it could never malfuntion. or B. i put another plug on there... that better not void cc warranty....

well the video is uploading..... ill edit this post as soon as it gets done!

ok video time!!!
