Have you bypassed the punk dig? Or the BEC? Tried a different reciever? Different Motor? Gotta trouble shoot it.....eliminate as many variables as you can, and you will find the problem. Later EddieO |

a possibility, mine did that and the problem was that the capacitor came loose from the solder joints and kinda bounced around

capacitors soldered up good. found a frayed wire leading to the receiver, fixed the wire turned it on and....still stalls. I think its time to upgrade motors anyways so im gonna see if those might just be done in.

What battery are you using? Sounds like the way it acts when using a Nimh battery with the esc on lipo setting.

I'm using a 2s 40c sky lipo. I thought I had set it to 2s but it might be on 3s as the preivous owner ran 3s. Could that be causing it? I'm gonna ask my dad for some new motors when I get home as im out of town. Suggestions for under 50$?

Sometimes it goes blank. Other times its the last three lit up when it stalls.

That's the ESC losing your radio neutral, do you have the external BEC hooked up properly? Red wire is pulled from the FXR receiver plug?

Fxr red wire is pulled. Everything was soldered and running before I bought it. Bec is pluged into bind port, and the dig is plugged in aux, as a diagram showed in here somewhere. My receiver wire is tucked in the casing as I was having glitching with my past setup. I'm using a dx3e. Ty do the new hd35 turns have some more jump to them than the past motors? |
