Hey guys, seriously I have no idea what happened.. I was running it on my GST 7.7. I decided to open the motor up, and guess what I saw, I saw the winding from the center of the motor can, all black and it fell out. the the center part of the rotor was all black, and it smelled like a schulze. Damn, that magnet was strong on that rotor.

I'm sure it' snot the mgm, I later tried it on a feigao 12xl motor with 8s, and it worked fine. you think maybe from sittin' around too long, this happened?.. because that motor had so very little use on it. I just hope Lehner can warranty this or replace some parts, but the windings are F*cked, could this be a faulty motor? Thing is, it worked fine before, on My E-Maxx. Now it's on a gas conversion, which should'nt stress the motor or esc as at all. There's only forward, no brakes, and no reverse. I use mechanical server brakes.. I'm really upset man, that motor costs a fortune. I wasn't expecting to spend much money this year either. :(
