problem
 

i have an axial ae-1 and a dynamite 5100 7.2v battery. ill charge the battery but when i go to drive my scaler itll twitch,go twitch, and start jittering, and my sterring is weak. i know it could be my battery but i checked it, its good. so i came to the conclusion i need your help:oops:

What else does your truck have on it? Motor,esc,gearing,servo, has it worked before with this same setup? Have you had it in the water?

its a cco1, stock everything except the esc:evil:, i has been in water everytime i drive it but today before i drove it i tore it down regeased everything with high temp bearing greese, also greased the motor. its done it 2 other times but i turn it off then back on and its good. the esc has no burns or scratches on it. anything that i could do to test the battery?

There is really no spot you can GREASE a motor....bearings or bushings should be oiled...nothing else would or should have grease on it.

Later EddieO

wasnt alot. my tought process was just a little then when it get through a cycle itll settle then its greased good but not enough to do this!

Clean the grease out of the motor. See if it still does it. If it does test with the servo disconnected and see if it still twitches. maybe its time for a bec

+1, the grease may be your biggest issue, especially if it got on the comm (the copper colored "shaft" inside the motor) and/or the motor brushes.

What ESC??

.....is your radio am or 2.4ghz?

Read the first post?"thumbsup".

crawlinnTN, you should clean the motor if possible, i would also look into getting a bec as the internal bec on that esc isn't the best.

X2 it could be the radio your using. At least check that out, and if it's ok then move back to the motor or esc to locate the problem.

its a tq3. i changed motors just to see and it still did it:evil: any way you guys know to test my battery?

i've had 2 tq3 setups do this to me, invest in a good radio. where is the rx antenna routed?

2.4ghz tq3 I doubt would be an issue though anythings is possible
The old one with the great big eye poker and a thirst for 8 aa batteries on the other hand would be a likelly culprit....common problem
Aside from that I dunno

its the older one. ill see what i can do
