Motor Problem

[motojaguar]

I recently constructed the FT Flyer and mounted the motor that had been through a crash on my tiny trainer but afterwards still worked. Today when i tested the motor out for the first time on the Flyer, it just like jerks around. The only improvement I have been able to make was to get it to stop jerking back and forth and actually go in a circle although it is still very jerky. Did I break it somehow?


Thanks,

I forgot to mention that it is the EMAX Motor MT1806 from the A power Pack




Thanks,

Usually stuttering is caused by a bad connection on one of the motor wires. Re-calibrating the ESC may also help.

It sounds like I had a problem similar to you with one of my emax 1806 motors. I believe I had a bad connection because I soldered new connectors on and it worked great.

another possibility: motor screws might be too long
