Orion Vortex 10.5 Brushless Motor - Maybe Faulty!

I have used this motor for two meetings only in my touring car - however there seems to be some sort of intermittent fault with it - sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't and the car just doesnt move!

Maybe someone will have more luck than me - Ive heard that sometimes the soldering behind where the sensor wire plugs in can be dodgy?!

Comes with box, instructions and all original packaging.

£25 posted.

Seriously, if you only selling it due to the fault its like a 5 min job for someone with a small iron.

Yes I'm serious - if that is the fault then someone will get a bargain!

and if it isn't the fault, someone just wasted £25

Its usally the sensor its self, needs to be sent back OR have you tried changing the sensor lead.

There is a problem with dry joints behind the plug on these motors though, Adam from stockton modeller did mine for me in an effort to make it work with the mamba. Also i had a problem with the sensor lead falling out but i fixed that
