| Motors stalling
Hey everyone thanks for the help like it says in the title I'm getting some motor stall in my bully. when approaching a rock when the front tires hit the rock the front tires stop spinning and the back tires spin faster. I'm running dual micro sidewinders and a rx bypass adapter for my hitec hs-7954sh with a cc bec. I'm running two team brood specters 35 turn type t's. I run 3cell 1000mah 35c lipos and a wantamix with one of the red wires from the esc's disconnected and a dx3r with a sr3100 rx. I've had the motors since about 8/25/2012 and they have been cleaned with performance plus3 from my LHS and oiled with a trinity oil from my LHS the comm is still very shiny and the brushes have normal wear as I've only put maybe 40 packs through the motors. It didn't start happening until I hooked up my servo with the rx bypass. I was told I need to have one of the esc's red wire unhooked or I could burn out my wantamix. Thanks for the help.

Is the sidewinder micro powering the wantamix through the RX? Is it the front ESC powering the RX perchance?

Yes the sidewinder is powering the wantamix threw the rx but when it started happening it was the rear esc powering the wantamix so I changed it to the front esc and it still happens. Also I'm not getting as much power as I should with my servo as it will not turn sometimes even with out a load on it.

The motors may need some attention, even if the comms look good there could be a glaze on them since you are using comm oil. Servo getting weak after installing the bypass adapter, don't know. |

Ok thanks and the servo has only been hooked up to the rx bypass. What would be the best way to clean the comma if I don't have a lathe.
