Motor cogging

[martgifford]

I got a Team wave RB50 and motor combo. Both worked fine until it started to be very temperamental and cog. A little push and it would get going again. I have taken the motor and esc out and diagnosed it is the Esc as another motor did the same. So I swapped sensor wires and it still remained the same. So the fault is with the Esc. If it is a sensor problem from the Esc I imagine that means the bin for my esc?

Basically if the rotor is in a specific spot the it will not turn?

Bin or another ideas dto save me £80. Thanks :cry:

hi
just another opinion i have recently had a look at a friends brushless set up he has had two speedos and two different motors and still had issues in the end with all combinations exhausted we tried a third motor and both speedos worked fine :confused: again .motors seem more prone to failure than speedos in my opinion .does the team wave speedo work in sensorless mode ? if so try without sensor lead fitted IF it works but lacks power then motor looks more like the culprit .

I am not guareenting success but its worth a shot before you bin the speedo especially if it doesnt have the familiar burnt smell

It could well be the motor sensors. Take the motor apart and clean the gunk out.

If that doesn't work, sometimes the rotor can be misaligned and not activating the sensors so try and shim it a bit closer.
