Hi,

Looks like I got a Mini T just as everyone is getting out - oops! Ah well, I still love mine. Got it off Ebay a couple of weeks ago and been running it indoors using AA batteries that came with it. Then I started using the GP 2700Ni-MH AA that I got for the transmitter in the stock battery holder. All was good with nice long run times. Took it out today for a little run and after getting stuck on a rut and a lot of wheel spinning to try and get it off it died.

Steering is still fine but there is no motor rotation either forward or reverse. How do I tell if it's the esc or the motor that is dead? It's a losi speed motor and stock electrics. No signs of damage or fried electrics smell to it...

Help!

Cheers, Neil

i dont have a mini t, but take off the gear cover and make sure there is nothing in there

the only way you can tell is to try a new motor, just get a stock motor and try that if it doesnt work, send your receiver esc unit back to losi and they will send you a new one

Losi will send a new receiver/esc, even if I got the truck second hand off ebay and fried it through my own stupidity?

Fantastic!

Thanks for the replies.

my baja does that sometimes but it colls down and is fine. Did you let it cool down?

Cheers Nasher,

Just about to buy a new motor and after reading your post I turned it on and it seems fine.

Superb. Thank you.

But why does it do it?
