| electric problems... Hi all Can anyone help me please..... I have got a cr-01 and it has been working great, but the last time i went out it wouldn't drive over a 3inch obsticle. It would drive up to an obsticle but the tire would not crawl/ pull the truck up. It would normally fly up but its as if the torque has gone. I noticed that the motor was roasting hot/ burnt finger hot. It would also drain a battery quickly. My cr-01 has an mtroniks tio v2 esc, 55t hpi brushed motor, 3700 minh battery and 27mhz receiver Things i have tried..... New fully charged batterys 27turn brushed motor but it still has the same problem.... Can anyone one help |

Remove the motor and make sure everything in the truck turns smoothly and freely.

What duuude said. and also maybe drop your pinion gear a few teeth. that will give it more torque than speed

Cheers Duuuuuuuude and twiztid metal for your help ;) I have taken the motor out and 3 out of the four wheels turn, but not very freely. Its quite hard to turn them and they only go forwards not reverse. The rear left is a lot harder to turn, as i tried it ragged the 12mm hex adaptor. When i turn the others wheels all four turn. Any more help/advice would be greatful cheers guys
