Default *MOTOR*HELP*

Hello.
I purchased a Peak Racing "raven SV2 19 turn" a few months ago.
I had nothing wrong with it and today it desides it wants to have a break. Im fairly new to r/c racing and im not sure what happend to it.
It has seem to lock up meaning I can bearly turn it with my hands.
I managed to turn it a few times and has seemed to come back to normal.
Just wondering what cause dthis and is it safe to still use?
Thanks

sounds like you might have gotten something in it ... .. you should tear it down and cut the com , clean and lube the bearings and put new brushes in it . then it should run like new again ...

How much would it cost approx (tell me in wich currency) would it cost yto get fixed the all that stuff you said?
Also I might just get another enigne.

It has probably picked-up something inside, stuck on the magnets.

Dissassemble it and see...

Slide the brushes out of the brush hoods by releasing the springs.
The two screws in the endbell, holds the endbell in place remove them to remove the endbell, then the armature.

You are looking for any debris that might be there that shouldn't be.

Use motor spray to clean up the arm and endbell before reassembly.

Good Luck
