| Creeper question
Sometimes with my creeper the will barely move forward. But if i reverse then go forward again it will move forward like it should. When the car is moving forward, there is more blue sparks than when the car is in reverse. Any info would be great. *Im running the Venom Fireball 55t and a futaba esc |

Check to see if the polarity is reversed. I can't tell you how much I have done that. Check the servo reversing on the radio.

make sure your pins are not coming out of your cv joints, reversing may push it back in just enough to drive again. Just something to check before buying a motor. how old is the motor? |

the motor is about a year old The pins are not coming out. I think i fried the esc last night. I plugged everything in right and the esc beeps. I think i might just order the novak rooster/fifty-five turn motor when i get the money. That should fix the problem |
