Novak HV 4.5 system problems

[JThiessen]

Yes, it was geared way too high. But seeing as I havent ever run it, I havent thermaled it. Like I said before, when I first put it in, I had problems with the forward/reverse being backwards, and I didnt get the differential flipping done until a week ago.

I tried gearing it down, went to 15/66, and still nothing. I also tried lifting it off the ground, but still didnt get anything this time.
When I squeeze the trigger, sometimes there is a small lurch, but most of the time nothing (forward or reverse). If I keep the trigger squeezed, I can see the motor twitch a little, and hear it clicking. I watched the lights on the ESC once when i did this, and I got 6 flashes of the green and blue lights. I looked in the manual, and it doesn't say anything specific regarding that, except that it may have suffered a possible locked rotor, and refers me back to the ESC set up.

One other thing. When I first put the motor in, I may have run one of the mount screws in too far. I say may, because I dont remember for certain. I ended up stacking some washers under the head until I was able to trim them down.
