Blade 400 Stock Motor Seizing
Just a couple weeks ago the stock motor on my 400 burned out. The motor started seizing and then finally it started to produce a burning smell. I shut down everything, as fast as I could, and let the motor cool. Can anyone tell me what would cause this to happen?
Thanks. |

if you have the reciept and the motor is under a year old, horizonhobby will replace it for free.
then when you get the new motor, replace the bearings first thing. |

What is the tooth count on the drive gear? I use a 10 . heat is caused by too much current draw. tight belt/12 t gear? I use sealed Boca bearings
