I I learned the hard way started my nitro without finding out my receiver batteries that controls throttle and brakes was dead and it it off hit a telephone pole in the air then smashed my cars windshield. Yea pre check everything even my real cars. Good one there Earl thanks again brother 👍🏻
I definitely check my equipment before a run , usually the night before . I'm understanding more why reading the data is important. Great video , we all make mistakes, just glad you show us how to fix them 😀 👍
Thank you for telling us to take the battery man we got to always look out for him you know but they can cause a lot of problem when you run thanks Earl you have a good day have a great run
Mine did that before. It ended up being weird like the castle was set to ccw rotation and the controller was on cw rotation. I ended up doing the whole start up hold trigger till beep, reverse till beep neutral till beep thing. Along with changing the motor rotation in castle link. I'm sure it's something goofy like that.
Definitely something like that I’ve had that happ as well that why I reset trigger end point as castle is easy to do but after three attempts and playing with the power switch and nothing changed I knew something was broken 👍⚠️⚠️
You able to get pinion off using red loctite. I just use blue but for new pinions I use blue take light heat up pinion real fast to dry loctite remove grub than apply more loctite again and good 2 go. Never had 1 fall off yet. New pinions need at least 2 coats of blue or they'll fall off everytime....
I just got my first 1/5 scale and they’re a whole different animal! Now I understand why people love them lmao! Thanks to these videos I think a dbxle is next on the list. Quick question though, I’ve been having issues with one brand of battery and haven’t been able to find a answer to how far apart a cell can be before it’s concerning?
Earl I need help. I got the outcast 4s and I don’t know how to solder the capacitors to my xt90s. The wires come from the esc into the caps and then they come out the other side of the caps and into to IC5s somehow. I can’t find a video showing how to wire it to an xt90. Any advice? I’ve never seen wires come out both sides of the caps. They run into the middle of the IC5s somehow. Are those just telemetry wires? Can I just cut em off?
Like my Dad taught me, when trouble shooting, when you find the problem, keep looking for the other problems, because it's rarely just one. Hopefully the radio swap solves it. Maybe your 3pos switch is faulty and stuck on low.

But u can access data with hobbywing Bluetooth on the sensored motors or limited data if just esc with other motor
Can’t change the ness art iteams you need to adjust as they added it but doesn’t work good at all 👍

Nice education on reading the Castle Data Logs! 😎💯💯💯

Thanks 🙏
Great video as always👊👊💯💯
Thanks Earl. I really appreciate all your videos.
Thanks 🙏
Great info bud. Thanks for sharing your findings.
That's 3s pack was crazy! Whoaaa
Sweet video always informative
Pre run check up is always a good idea

New horizon hobby 8s rc’s will include safe D style pinions
The combo of the esc and this older spectrum stuff is the problem
If you put the locker spool in middle it’s unreal difference!

Yes red takes a little heat but removes easily
Always check my stuff before I run, especially if I'm planning on going hard. Ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure
Yes plus the distance we travel to run don’t want issues 👍👍
I'm going with 53 54 ish mph now that you got the issue with it figured out.

When fully charged if a cell is 3.99 and lower and the rest at 4.20 each cell then it’s no good
@@earlmoorhead5555 ok thanks!

Cap pack is soldered to the red and black esc main power wires not to the connectors I have videos showing how to install a cap pack 👍
The wire your looking at is the telemetry wire it’s not needed
Earl. Do you calibrate your ESC? Like the throttle, brake and neutral? I didn't see you do that. I made that mistake and I had a runaway.
Yes 👍
My genace same ones did same think they actually just was hard packs but swollen trashed them the proper way. They didn’t last long??
I used to have good luck with those batteries but not lately.
Me to 🤷🏻♂️
have you ever tried vibtra-tite vc3 vs loc-tite on these cars? My brother is a master harley tech but his world doesn't really mesh with these things
No I haven’t once I find something working I just stick to it 👍👍
Cool new videos in my nightshift
👊👍💪

Yes I feel the radio was bad and I swapped it out now it’s marked bad
It's not worth removing the bad cells and making 2 3s packs?
EARL….I’ve always use POWERHOBBY batts…for years,,,not one issue in 8 years…just my choice 🇺🇸👈🚘
I’ve been lucky with lectron pro but I needed a big mah rated pack it was all I could find locally
why don't you use the remaining good cells of your lipo to build a new battery
Not worth my time
good old gens ace. stopped buying them 15 years ago lol
I have two 3S packs the same battery my battery did the same thing they are only 7 months old
They are definitely not a good battery pack brand
Lucky that lipo not catch fire when it burst open
Yes
No sparks
Lol 😂
Radio gear is a bitch. Electronics suck & RC is a battle ! We the consumer shouldn't be quality control for these companies
I agree
First
Notification squad 💪👍👑
U need the 1100
Runs to hot as Exocage and me both found out 👍👍
@@earlmoorhead5555 guess I didn’t run mine hard enough lol
@@nolimitrc1 I really pushed the gearing and found out quickly some rc are just to heavy for the 1100kv but it’s an awesome motor 👌
@@earlmoorhead5555 true and now remember my outcast 8s I was running the 800 on over drive 48 pin 34 spur to get the speed to match my Xmaxx that ran the hobbywing 1100 stub
Yes same most of us went back to the 800kv on are bigger rc cars and just geared up a little runs cooler 👍👍
I don't miss California and all their dumb rules. Texas is so much better in that aspect.
Yes I can’t wait to leave 💯👌
