Plenty of sensor wires have been tried on both orions and both maxzilla's.

If the trinity sensor was bad why would it work perfectly fine on the rx8 in sensored mode?

Running sensorless just proves that the sensor board is not the problem. the orion will switch to sensorless and "should" at least run the motor.

If you read the orion thread there are indeed motors the r10 does not like.

It is also not what I believe is a cogging issue. It will not start at all unless you push the car first.
