Anyone having issues such as loosing full throttle during hard turns and gaining it back when you let go of the steering? Am I missing something?

Thanks!

I want to order the TorqueMaster BR-XL. Can it be wired to handle dual motors?

When wiring this unit up I still need to install the battery wires right, and does the positive (red) and negative (black) wires go into the same sides as the two motor wires that are already installed? And can you use the castle feild card to program this?

The red and black wires are the battery leads, you need to install the battery plug. The through holes are the motor power. You can only use the field card when hooked to a computer like a normal Castle Link.

Are you getting any arm boot tones from the motor? When your throttle is at neutral, are all lights off on ESC? Is forward green and reverse red?

Try to reflash the ESC firmware, otherwise send it in and we can check it out.

Hi John,

Could you take a look at my problem? I think I killed my HH TorqueMaster BR-XL

I'm also going to submit a message via your website, since I'm not sure which is the proper way. Thanks!

I can. The sensor cable would be plugged in with dialectric grease, and I highly recommend getting rid of the fan if you plan to run in water. If the WP job is just for resistance to water, fan is OK.

No problems with that either. Even if the can is swiss cheese we can at least protect the components and keep it running solid under water.
