Hey all,
I am having issues with my 3s granite not wanting to move when giving it throttle. It was driving fine for a bit, then it started to sound different. Such as stripped gears possibly. When I pick it up and hit the throttle lever, the motor revs up but the tires barely move. I took off the motor and looked at the spur and pinion gear and to me they seem fine. What else can I check to locate the issue.

Did You check your slipper? They tend to come loose, and need a little locktite to keep them in place.
 
I agree with rudedogg79. Slipper clutch.
