Tornado exp pro won't launch, just shakes
Only had it for a couple years with only maybe 20 hrs total run time. Basically when to try and take off it tries to move but just sits there while the drive shaft is clicking back and forth trying to go but it won't. If you pick it up removing all the weight off the wheels it accelerates just fine. I have tried all 3 of my 7.4 5000 lipo batteries so I'm pretty sure it's not a battery issue. I've already bought a new controller and binded it but that wasn't the problem either. I removed the brushless motor and did find sand inside. I was able to shake out the majority of it but it still didn't help. I've checked my ecu and it's programmed correctly so the only thing I can think of is the sand has damaged my motor but I'm open to any suggestions. Thanks.

While waiting for someone with firsthand experienced on your platform...According to folks over in New Jersey, trying to figure something out on your own is not a viable option. http://www.redcatracing.com/Contact
