| Motor question on MOA crawler
I'm wondering why is it when I turn one set of wheels with my hand on my MOA berg, the opposite axle will move as well, even with all electronics turned off. When I twist the wheels with my hand, does the motor somehow generate an electrical charge that runs through the motor wires, through the punk dig, and causes the opposite motor to spin the other axle?

Your explanation is right, isn't electricity cool?(except when it shocks your azz)

Yes, in theory running a motor by hand or whatever turns it into a generator.....the power will go somewhere. Your ESC in most cases has safeguards for this....not much to worry about. Later EddieO |
