hey lads i was racing today and i was jumping a table top jump indoors and landed heavily afterwards and the car wouldnt move i had steering ok but the motor wouldnt work.when the gtb is on theres a solid red light and a green light flashing i have read the manual and checked all the connections and replaced the switch and reciver wiring connection but still won't work just wondering if anybody has any ideas thanks

From Novak: -

Red status LED on solid & Green LED blinking.

Check input signal harness & motor
sensor harness connections at ESC. Check input signal harness wiring sequence &
connection at throttle channel of receiver. Check throttle channel operation with servo.

Motor sensor harness connected while in Brush-Mode––disconnect sensor harness.

Sometimes a good ol' fashioned reboot works wonders. Go through the one touch set up and start over - 1 minute and you may be up and running again.

This is motor sensors,sensor wires, or sensor plug to speedo, I got it after the car would run then stop....if you pushed the car it would work ok,but once it stopped got them lights flashing, turned out to be a split in the orange sensor wire inside the motor.......hope this helps

The manual suggests possible reciever damage. Try replacing the reciever see if that helps.

tried another reciver to no avail i think its a lost cause

I have just unplugged the sensor wire and turned my GTB on - Same symptoms - My money is on the sensor wire is damaged, (like the above posts from- pugs and emtee). Change the sensor wire and that will most likely resolve it.

I notice you switched the motor. What motor was it - i.e. did it have a seperate sensor lead or was it soldered into the motor? If the former, my next question is - did you change the sensor lead?. If it it's the latter, did you clean the contacts on the ESC/ check the solder tabs etc.
