Default LRP Sphere issue?…

Hey all, not sure if my ESC is the problem or my motor (Tekin 13.5), but it was running well last time out and then today it's not hitting top end. I triple checked everything and all checks out OK. I even re-bound the transmitter and receiver and reset everything in the hopes it would fix my issue, but no such luck.

I have another TC Spec at home so I will connect it to my car and see if there's a difference which would mean it's most likely the ESC. This one does not have the Power Capacitor, but I'm wondering if that would make any difference. My TC was just pulled out of my T4 and the truck moved like greased lightning and still does with my new Reventon R so at least I'll know if the ESC lacks punch and go from there.

Hopefully someone has a suggestion outside of changing ESC settings which I've done a few times already.



Thanks.

Check that all solder joints are solid & you might try another sensor cord.

Hmm.. Sensor cord is fairly new but I'll give that a shot.

I just connected the TC Sphere to it and there was a slight but noticeable improvement. I need another motor to really diagnose if it's the Motor or ESC.

Ok, got my hands on a Reedy Sonic 17.5 and it was perfect. Such a relief to know it wasn't the ESC and as well,the car was so much quicker than it had been previously.
