|  Motor is Twitching and sputtering
Ok so this is what the problem is. I just bought a brand new Sidewinder SV2 after installation i got it all programmed and ready to run. Then i pull the trigger on my radio......... click click click... the motor (the stock axial motor in the scx10) just keeps ticking and and twitching. If i try to help the motor spin it starts going at full speed but almost pulsing and when i start to lay off the throttle it stops and does the stupid twitching crap again. Oh did i mention the motor smells like burning and i can see plenty of sparks inside that crap can. Here is the equipment I am using Stock scx10 axial motor 3500 mah 3s lipo Sidewinder SV2 Any Ideas?  |

Was the motor working OK before the ESC swap? Did you do anything else when you did the ESC swap? Let's start with these, then go from there.  |
