You are going to want to post more info: Motor ESC Battery TX/RX type of vehicle In the meantime check the gear mesh; is it binding? Check your mounting bolts: are they too long and are obstructing the rotor? Try removing the motor and testing it out of the vehicle: 1. using a small battery(s) 2. hooked up to the ESC |

Yup, the more info you give us, the more we can help you. Along with what KTBone said, I recommend half-splitting your problem by removing the motor, try spinning it by hand, does it move freely? Try spinning the rest of the drive train by turning the spur by hand and rolling the tires by hand. If everything rolls smoothly, try connecting the motor to your ESC and powering everything up, does your motor spin? Also, check the axels for rocks and other debris. Did this happen when you where starting to run your truck, or did it happen in the middle of a run? |
