Please help, was told electric was a good way to go for a beginner
I just purchased a Redcat Volcano Exp Pro and straight out of the box I have had problems. I charged the battery pack for 3 hours as recommended by the dealer and on the first run the truck just surged repeatedly in forward but runs perfectly in reverse. I tried tweaking the adjustment on the controller but to no avail, it actually made it worse. I gave up for an hour being frustrated then went back out to try again and it took off like it was supposed to then started surging again. Now its surging in fwd and reverse. Anybody have any ideas why this is happening. This is my second Redcat truck, my first is a Groundpounder which on the advice of my hobby dealer I upgraded the battery pack to a lipo 5800 which turned out to be a death sentence to the stock motor or esc not sure which. I want to upgrade the motor and esc in this as well since they are shot. Any suggestions for that?
