Man, that totally makes sense And hope a newer battery works. I have mostly 80c batteries, basic affordable ones from Zee and Hoovoo and they work good enough for 3s bashing. Eventually I will get better ones but right now I’m sitting in the bargen basement because I can’t stop spending money on parts, bodies, paint and other stuffI looked over the truck and everything seems smooth. I don’t think the drive train is to blame.
I may have figured out the issue. I’m pretty sure it’s my old batteries. I’m using a 5000mah 20c 2s and 6400mah 30c 3s. For some reason I thought they were higher c rating than that. They are both more than 5 years old so I would bet their c ratings are even lower than stated. They may just not have enough juice to get it started causing it to cog until it gets moving. I turned the punch down to 1 to see if that helps and I’ll buy some new batteries too. I’ll report back once I tested it again.
What packs are you all using in this thing?
