| Problem with two different OutCry Crawler ESC and BEC
I used a single Outcry Crawler ESC with the BEC and every time my Crawler jarred the wires it would cut off then back on there is nothing i can do to fix it cant open the case to check for loose wire so i bought a new one...

1-Did you calibrate the ESC's? 2-What servo's? 3-Does the issue appear when you are in a bind and try to steer? All ESC's need to be calibrated, if not they can do weird things. If you have 2 high draw servo's, you can over draw the ESC BEC and kill the RX. |

I do not know how to Calibrate the ESC.. and it only does it when the wires are Jarred... i have even have to move anything motors or servos and it will do the same thing... The servo is MG946R, 208oz Torque Metal Gear Servo The issue has nothing to do with putting the Servos or Motor in a bind... |

I found this..... http://www.killerkrawler.com/images/...structions.pdf but it does not state anything about calibration. Since you state you can recreate the issue by wiggling wires, I would follow up on a loose connection or possible shorting between wires. | |

Well there is no way that I can see of calibrating it.. Don't see how it could be the servo it since it does it with one or o.. and both Outcry's do the same exact thing how could both Outcry's have the same wire doing the same thing... And it only does it if I wiggle the wire or the crawler hits a hole or bump.. not all the time.. I could go 30mins and not a single issue then its like every 5 seconds it screws up..... Is there a better esc and bec out there??? What's recaminded from dual motors??? |

First, there has to be a way to calibrate the ESC to the radio, read the instructions. Second, what kind of battery plugs are you using? Sounds almost like an issue with the cheap white Tamiya plugs. Is there better out there? Yes way better. Look at Castle and Tekin ESC's and the Castle BEC. |
