Hello,
Just wondering if other people have been experiencing similar issues with the factory 60 Amp ESC. Just a quick FYI, boat has been ran a few times with a couple of rollovers. It did get water but hardly much, maybe about a spoonful. Motor is stock, esc is stock, prop is stock, Fly Sky FS-GT3B remote, and I did recently install 5.5 bullet connectors. I am running 4S Gen Ace's 40C 5000MAH batteries with 5.5 bullets.
Here's my issue...I turn on everything and sometimes I don't hear the beep beep from the esc, the times when I do not hear the beep I have no throttle and the motor will not turn. I would disconnect everything and come back later, plug everything up again, and even try swapping batteries. It would be a hit or miss it would beep beep and work or vice versa. I did notice when I was able to throttle it I would here the esc studder, I figure it's the torque sensor so I take a rag and wrap it around the prop bullet gently and the motor would turn. I know i'm all over the place with this post so I have to apologize. I'm thinking of dumping the whole setup and going with a 2200KV 4074 & 180amp seaking combo. I haven't put it in the water again since noticing this issue, don't won't to be dead in the water. Please chime in, i'm all ears.
Also, I did put the remote in another boat and my nitro car and works perfectly fine. I brought the ESC to my other boat and I was having the issues with it not turning on the throttle (CH. 2).
Thanks in advance.
