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?

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 |

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

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. | ||

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 |
