Well, I just recieved a ofna starter box that I bought off of ebay and it is the one with two motors in it. I hooked up a battery to this starter box, using the switch that it comes with and I didnt get anything. So I hooked the motors up directly to the battery bipasing the switch and both of them run but they dont spin very fast. And I was even using a car battery like your supposed to. The car battery was full with juice, and I know that because that is the car that I drive everyday. So I dont really care if I have to bipass the switch everytime but I want to know why the motors spin reallly slowly and then they almost die after awhile. Also these are BRAND new motors. Can someone help me.

Can someone help me please.

Anyone??

Does anyone have any suggestions.

You should call OFNA.

lol rc entusesists amaze me

I assume you have the box with the 2 540 motors. I have the same box and have had it for years and it still runs great.
I have replaced the rubber wheel once but that is about it.

I am unsure about the switch, could be the wiring.

As for the low speed of the motors...How are you hooking it up to the battery in your car?

Sometimes a long cable between the box and the battery can cause excessive resistance but should not deplete your car battery if it is in good shape.

I would check the wiring in the box and possibly rewire it, the other thing is that it may be possible that the motors are just worn out.


What kind of physical condition is the box in?

Any pictures of the box and wiring?

that's just weird... even if you reverse the polarities the wheel would spin the other way. Are you sure they are new? because if they spin slowly, the motors could be dying etc etc etc.

Hey, dbow do you have aim or anything else so I could talk to you. And if so what is your sign in name.

I do not use IM programs anymore, I still have ICQ installed but I never use it.

Send a PM or email if you would like.
