I cant positively say that its programmed correctly. I was standing nearby halfassed coaching him. It had forward/reverse/ and braking when he ran it. We'll redo that tomorrow. We also didnt try it with the wheels off the ground (the destructions say Not To Do That!!! )
He's using the stock TQ-3 system. I'd like to use this as a reason to talk him into a 2.4 system, but I think his little lady might have some issues with that right now!

Based on your description E-Revonut, its cogging. Running about 10 to 15, it gets very short stutters of power for a few feet, then runs fine. I thought at first he was doing it, but it did it on me too.

I'm hesitant to blame this on batteries. There is in fact life without Lipo's guys....and not all failures are due to cheap batteries (MMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!)

I'm going to throw one of my old recievers in too, just to eliminate that possibility.


Losi 8T 1.0, Savage Flux - XL style, LST XXL, Muggy, 3.3 E-Revo Conversion and sitting outside 425hp, 831 Tq Dodge Ram Turbo Diesel. It SMOKES
