Default Help from the pros

I'm having a hard time with my E-flite F-86. It's not giving me all
the thrust now. How do I verify if it's the motor or the ecu???


Thanks:
E.N.T.

Trying to get some help from anyone . If it's the speed control
which is a Castle Ice 75 or the motor of the V15 fan? It doesn't
reach all the rpm's as before.

Thanks;

2 question. Is your flight battery charged to 16.8 volts assuming you are using a 4S. Did you change any programming in transmitter that may be limiting throttle? Also, make sure motor turns free and is not bound up. If motor doesnt turn free I would say motor is bad.

Hope this helps.
