16T pinion is too large in my opinion. I find a 12 or 13 is better.

Does the motor continue to run after the crawler stops? If so then the slipper is slipping. It seems that some were built without a slipper pad on both sides.

yea my battery is charged all the way i think. i put it on the charger with the balancer and the charger said full. its not acting like it is slipping i will pick up a smaller pinion tomorrow. reverse works great its just forward that not right i have tried all the settings on the apqc and nothing seem to change.

I run the 17.5 system in my losi with a 13t pinion and a 2cell lipo and it works great.

Have you hooked it up to the computer? maybe the throttle limit is not on zero. what radio are you running? maybe the trim setting is set to a lower %


Im just a newbe so I might be off on my ideas. I know when I went to my new radio I did not have any reverse and it turned out to me my reverse trim was set wrong


Good luck
