Novak's Hall Sensor Test™ on my GTB2 and all the LEDs show that the timing sensor is working 100%. I also swapped out the sensor wire just to make sure it not a wire issue. But the car still does not move from a dead stop!
Yes. I had the same thing happen to me at the USVTA Southern Nationals. I had a Ballistic 25.5 and a Speed Passion Cirtix Stock Club ESC. My VTA just would not start moving after coming to a complete stop. I replaced the Speed Passion ESC with a brand new Novak Edge ESC and the problem disappeared.
There was nothing wrong with the Ballistic motor, it was the ESC that had a problem. So my guess is that you may have something wrong with the GTB2 ESC. It could be a bad sensor input or a bad motor drive circuit.
