Default RE: Vstank King Tiger Problem

I will try to get some pictures today or tomorrow.

Both gears move freely. There are to motors inside the tank, one for the right side and one for the left. Each motor has a connector which independently connect to ports on the controller board inside the tank. Since I knew the left side moved forward properly, I simply swapped the left for the right and vice versa. I then powered up the tank and transmitter and pushed forward on the joystick. Suddenly, the right motor started working and the left stopped. This at least confirmed that I dont have a bad motor. When I connected everything back like normal, the problem switched back to the right. Troubleshooting in this fashion tells me the that at least the motor isnt frozen or stuck and works properly. It also tells me that the problem must exist on the PCB connector dedicated to the right motor. To me it seems that there is something interfering with the forward command signal getting to the right motor port on the PCB. I will get some pics posted. Thanks again!
