Problems with 3.8 motors?
I bought 2 3.8 motors here, and during the last two days, I've managed to burn out both of them.
The first, I had just installed the new 150mah battery and wanted to test the run time. I flipped my car on its back and placed something heavy on the controller. After it ran out of juice, I put the car up for a few hours. When I came back, I couldn't get the engine to go. I could push it, and it would just barely eek forward.
Today, I put my spare 3.8 in. I challenged a friend to a race. I got a few charges out of it and the same thing happened. Within 20 minutes, a 2.2 could have beaten me. This was not constant motion as the day before. It was more like off an on, stopping, chatting, racing a few laps on a giant boardroom table, etc.
Is this just the type of performance I should expect out of the 3.8s? Are they not much better than for drag racing (short quick races)?
