Wheels wont turn?

[pajey]

Hey guys, I have just bought myself a redcat rs10/hbx rockfighter and was mucking around on my backyard course and while it was trying to crawl some things the rear wheels would stop turning so it was like it only had front wheel drive. Why does this happen? If someone could help I would really appreicate it. Thanks

sounds like cold stall to me. Happens to the cats from time to time. I just let off and go again and most times that works for me"thumbsup"

Could be that, or it could be the motor wires are coming unplugged between the esc, and the motor. Pretty easy to knock them loose.

You broke the steel pin in your rear axle. They are pretty weak from the factory, I've broken both the front and the rear.

Here's a link to some hardened ones

What I did was take a tiny drill bit and cut a piece to the proper length and install it. It holds up great.

Thanks guys for all ur help i really do appreciate it but i think CantonArea Crawler got it since i read this on rc universe when i was looking at some rs10s.'A Beiji Guang 70T 380 sized motor is mounted to each of the RS10 axles. The motors appear to be wired in parallel which should help with clod stall. Clod stall is when one of the motors stalls and the other keeps running. This could happen if either the front or rear wheels are in a bind or just under a heavier load. It is common for the rear wheels to stop spinning when making steep climbs with minimal throttle. Clod stall was named after the most popular MOA truck of all time, the Clod buster.'
