Hi all. I have been having an issue with my motor stuttering. It stutters at low throttle and continues up to full throttle. If I rev the throttle quickly from the off position I can get it to spin normally sometimes, but will begin stuttering again at low throttle. After researching, it seems the likely cause is bad connection on either the motor or ESC. I tried experimenting using 2 identical motors and 2 different speed controllers. Here are the results:
ESC A + Motor A = stuttering
ESC A + Motor B = works
ESC B + Motor A = works
ESC B + Motor B = works
This makes no sense to me. If it's a bad ESC, why does it work with an identical motor? If it's the motor, why does it work with a different ESC? I have checked all the wire connections and have tried changing every setting on the ESC (start force, timing, etc.). Does anyone have any other ideas on what the problem could be or how to resolve this?
