But after I got home from racing last nite, I found my motor's rotor very slightly bend around 1/2mm. it was enough to give a tight fit against spur gear when it is turned towards spur.
Do you guys think this could be the cause of my pain??
Anyone had a similar thing happen before?
Just trying to work out if I should buy a new rotor or not before next race.
Thanks!
A bent rotor will cause a number of issues, fouled gear mesh, and, or vibration at the very least
What do you mean, when you say the car keeps turning ?
Does it stay left, or right when you try to point it straight ?
If so, that is most likely the result of a failed servo/servo saver
