Sounds like the wires might be wrong. Check the sensor lead. If still nothing try rotating it by hand.

Thanks for the info. I have an LRP Vector 8, 2500KV. I removed the motor from my car and cleaned off all of the solder. I re-soldered the wires and they are placed in their correct position and order. I also changed the sensor wire and I still have the same problem. I can tell something is moving in the motor but the post that the gear is attached to doesn't move. It just sort of vibrates when I give it some throttle. I can turn it by hand. My motor worked before I changed my ESC.

If anyone is interested I have a really nice RC8Be rebuilt in excellent condition.

Anybody know or want to measure the diameter on the threads on the turnbuckles with part # 89268 or 89269 for me? I have sold my RC8e now so i am not able to measure it, and i don't remember if it was 4 or 5 mm.

Thanks in advance!

No one? I want to order these soon if they are 4 mm, but until someone measures them i am stucked.

try posting this question in the rc8.2 or .2e forum. maybe youll have better luck. I unfortunately have no calipers

Hey guys, I noticed today that the front end steering is very sloppy - is there a Factory Team or other option (like Integy) to tighten up the front steering? Even the tires seem like they are a bit wobbly - even though the nuts are on as tight as possible.

Mine has taken a beating and stays pretty dang tight usuall. The only time I get slop like that is when my screws holding my steering rods on get loose and back out. Checkum if you havnt yet

I was thinking about it. I will try there! You don't need a caliper, it is enough with a ruler. I guess you see the difference between 4 and 5 mm

Looking at upgrading my shock towers... iv seen pics of the be's with carbon towers that mount the shocks more like the 8.2s. Any ideas where i could get some?

i got a pretty badass set from gridrc.com they are alum not carbon tho. you get the same geometry without having to change all the arms and sway bars. they were 46$ and they made my car drive way better instantly. came with sweet standoffs too.

I have just put my RPM arms on, and the factory droop screw does not fit. Any ideas what size screw I can use? I've searched with no luck.

I'm not new to the hobby but i am new to 1/8 scale. I am wanting to build a rc8be kit, it will be my first kit build, so is this kit difficult to build? Thanks

Is anyone having any issuses with chassis braces? I've broken 2 rear braces, they snapped right where it mounts on the rear tower..and it's not from crashes..I cased one jump but it should be able to take one mistake..guys with Losi's aren't breaking doing the very same thing..

no its an easy build, instructions and manual are one of the best i have ever seen. plus turnbuckles are already assembled and so are the shocks, just fill em and your ready. those two parts saved alot of time. took me a few nights in front of the tv at a slow pace to complete it
