Ok, guys. Let me know your thoughts. I'm looking for the seasoned vets to give me their opinion. I thinks it's cogging. It almost feels like when of your motor leads is almost out. But it really only happens in high amp draw situations. If I ease into the throttle it will actually drive slowly and smoothly. But when I mash it, like to pull a wheelie, it stutters and shakes before the power just explodes. If I put my foot in front of the truck to keep it from moving forward while mashing the throttle, it will offer up very little push and stutter badly. It's exactly like the issue I had when I geared up my BRCC while using the Max10 SCT esc.
I don't have another motor or ESC to try. I will be picking up the new Castle ESC and sensored motor combo. When I get it I may try the Castle ESC and this motor to see if it still does it. If not, then this is a Max5 issue. If it still does, I'd say it's a motor issue. I can also swap on the Castle motor with the Max5 and see what happens.
Here is the video. I am 99.9% positive that this is an electronics issue and not damaged diffs, etc.
