Sully Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 It's the truggy flux. What happened was, all 3 screws ripped out of the motor mount, motor ended up at 45 degrees and then pushed centre diff forward Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it damaged the motor because it gets hotter quicker and when it gets to 70c it cogs badly on a 15T pinny! On closer inspection the rotor has a rubbed smooth area at the front so looks like something internal is expanding with heat. Gutted.

Exactly the reason i went! no regrets, had more fun in the last 4 months in electric than the last 3 years in nitro. nitro gave me problems everytime i took it out, electic all the way!

Not a chance in hell on grass!!!!!!!! I can run that on tarmac no probs. Drop 3-5 teeth for the field out the back!!!! Ground makes a big difference. Also I use a 6s 5000mah 30c with a 1600kv and I can go 25mins on tarmac drop that to 10 on the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
