Hello everyone,
After a month of running my Granite Mega V3, I noticed my motor cables started acting up. The connectors were overheating to the point of melting the sleeves around them. This was about a week ago. I made sure the connection was okay and the problem mostly seemed to disappear. Anyways, today, it cut the power on me after about 5 minutes of runtime. I recharged the battery and tried again, this time though, only reverse throttle was working and smoke started to come out of the ESC.
What should I do? I haven't exposed the vehicle to any extreme conditions, maybe a bit of snow, cold weather, etc.
I wouldn't expect a brushed ESC to give out after a month of usage.
Any advice greatly appreciated
