Default Losi Night Crawler question.

Losi Night Crawler on a stone wall - YouTube





Seems like it is binding up as I drive, thought it might be axle or gear box related, someone else suggested maybe a ESC or Motor issue. Please HELP!

You just recently buy this? Losi's need regular maintenance particularly the worm gears. Unless you've already been inside them recently, tear down both axles, clean and lube the worms, check all the bearings for smooth and make sure your driveshafts don't have broken pins or other problems. All the tranny gears are external and you can inspect them without teardown. Post questions like these in the TeamLosi forum and read thru numerous similar threads there.

Search the LCC/LNC sub forum for "worm stall" and you might find an answer.

If it's the occasional stops seen in the film that bothers you it seems like these are more related to the combination of the fairly weak 35T motor and less capable batteries. (See the indicator LED on the ESC at the rear.)
