How old is it? Do you take care of it, maintenance wise? |

....if you haven't already done so - check to see if your ESC is indeed working. Easily done by attaching a motor that you know works for sure. Just my 2 cents - 55t motors aren't easily burnt out w/normal use.

Check to make sure there isn't anything in the motor, screw, washer, nut, ect.... I know I have sat a motor down more than once on the work bench and the motor sucked something in it! Pull your brushes and check them. Also take a look at your caps and see if they are good. Have you asked the seller who you got it from about it?

Brushes super short? Springs that holds the brushes in place bottoming out in the slot? Commutator could be toast, and in need of a cut to get it all good again (maybe). If you kick it, does the truck move again? |
