|  Help!!!!
Hopefully I am posting this in the right area. I just got my Gmade R1 finished and took her out side for some rocks. I was running her around the house and she ran fine. I took her out and ran some rocks with no issues and then turned the controls over to my 7 year old daughter. She was doing really good with it and then she had a roll over. No big deal right? Well while laying on the roof it continued to move forward. I told my daughter to let off the throttle and she showed me she wasnt on it. So I turned the power off and flipped her over to check it out. Everything looked fine no wires off or anything like that. Unplugged the battery pack and let her sit a bit. Plugged it back in and turned it on and the same thing full throttle forward. I looked at the controler to see if she bumped the trim and that was fine. I did adjust the trim a bit but once I got it stopped I had no speed at all forward and just a little rev. Anyone have any ideas? I even tried to reset the receiver with no results. I am running a RC4WD 4 channel reciever and a Venom speed contorler. Any help would be appreciated. Im really bummed out as I only had her out for not even 10 minutes when this happened. PLEASE HELP!!!  |

Not familiar with that ESC - but I would go through the ESC setup again - sounds like it might have lost its calibration somehow?

Did you make sure your daughter didn't accidentally bump up the throttle trim? Edit: never mind. Just saw that you checked. |

I have another SC that I will try and see what happens. If that is the case I think I have a bit of an issue with the Venom only working for maybe a total of 1 hour. Maybe I will find out how their customer service is. I will keep you posted. Thanks!
