just a question about motor turns

[ped453]

would a lower turn motor affect the dragbrake? Reason i'm asking is that I have a 19t orion double on 1/10 sidewinder esc and I programmed it to full on crawler dragbrake, but it seems to have no dragbrake at all, but when I switch to a 55t it was fine could this be a bad motor, brushes maybe??? (the motor is brand new btw.).

heres my set up:

WK axles and tranny
3s lipo
CC bec
CC sidewinder
DX3e

thanks for any help. PEDRO

I guess depends on how much lower of a turn it is....in theory, it could, as torque is generated in reverse too, which is all drag brake really is to a degree......

Lack of maintenance can do it too.....as brushes get shorter, spring tension decreases, which effects holding power....
