Default RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C. Part 2.

Sounds like either your esc is torched or theres a bad connection between the motor and esc. Also the battery might be bad. better check. I recently upgraded from stock esc. (as you'll see I too have an evader st. If you look under my gallery at some of my pics, you'll notice I have the Traxxas 3s esc and 3500kv motor) If you find that your esc is toast, then I recommend you get an esc and motor from castle creations and run 2S. The first move you want to make is get rid of NiMh. I had NiMh for like 3 years and just got my first lipo last Friday. Believe me, lipo is lighter, stronger, faster, and overall, way better. I am running I think an 8T in my st with the evader brushless diff. and wheely bar. It's amazing! So I guess go ahead and run it till it shuts down again, and check the temp of the esc. If it's over 160 degrees, then it's probably toast. On to the motor, what are you running for the motor?
