| East StL repair work?
I live in SW IL, near Highland and am in need of someone who would be interested in repairing two crawlers for me. Crawler 1 is an Exceed Maxstone. This has developed the jitters and is nearly uncontrollable. Only work I have performed on this is replaced the steering servo. 2 is a Losi Mini-crawler (I think?). I am trying to remember specifically what is wrong with this one, but I do know that the previous owner converted the gearing to go faster. I was told it has all the stock parts in the box, which is how I would like it returned. Of course, I'd like guidance if it's more affordable to simply replace them instead, but my son wants an RC crawler for Christmas and I figured money would be better spent fixing what I have. Thanks! |

Check your connections on the exceed maxstone. might have a loose wire or the servo also may be drawing too much power from the internal bec on the esc. | |

Thanks so much for the help! Some new developments as of late. I found out a friend of mine at church is into RC's and has a cousin-in-law who's really good with this stuff. We went to the cousin's house and with some troubleshooting we found the following... Losi - ESC burnt up. It's rated at 25A, and I was told I need something in the 45A range. Any ideas? The motor is a Leopard Hobby LBA2040 with these specs: Quote:
I was chatting with a certain Hobby shop last night and either he was chatting with 4 people at once and getting us confused, or we were just not on the same page. Either way, he ended the conversation abruptly so I won't be going there for parts. I have a direction to get both crawlers running again, just want descent parts to replace with so I can enjoy them again! | |
