What electrics system? Is it a fast jiggle or a slow glitch?

Stock . More of a slow glitch like its pulses but it sounds like the the brushes in the motor passing over the contacts

Try resetting the esc. If that doesn't work then check all your wiring to make sure nothing is loose. After that I'm lost on electronics.

Make sure your grub screw on the pinion isn't hitting the spur gear. You can also take the pinion off and see if it happens when you put a load on the motor.

The pinion was to far away from the spur adjusted it and good to go thank u-all for the point in the right direction . It was skipping teeth under a load
