RE: A couple problems with my first RC- TT-01 w/ MC330R ESC
Did you set the esc yet? you have to calibrate the ESC to your radio first. That probably why its moving when you turn it on. It doesn't know where neutral is.
If it didn't budge when you pushed it, somethings binding in the drivetrain. The gearing may be too tight, or somethings just stuck somewhere.
um. the rear end thing. try to get a picture of it, so i can see whats up. you may or may not have to get a new chassis. depends. If the heat was just momentary it shouldn't have done anything too dramatic.
If you still need help dave, I'm coming home for the weekend. We can meet up if you want and ill take a look at it and set it up for you. PM a address or somewhere we can meet.
