And here's the pic of the comm (all a bit burned after about 6 laps)....doesn't look good does it!?!



Bear in mind that the brush wire used to be connected up, albeit with only a few strands of wire connecting it together which I didn't actually notice until after I'd run the race and experienced the problems.

All other tests with other motors so far suggest that the motor is at fault.

Cheers.
to be honest mate i bin racin for for 26 years dodgy motors dont shag servos i reckon its the gear set
