Default Re: My dozer I have been wanting for a while.

I have blown a couple motors in my Stahl track hoe this way.. though the model is not moving, the throttle was not perfectly centered and with a wee bit of current applied (not enough to move the track) gets those motors real hot! POP! puff of smoke from a capacitor.

Can't beat these motors for smooth, glitch free power, but you got to set your neutrals correctly within your radio or you'll destroy them.

Given the way the Leimbach esc works, I like the Sabertooth.. much cheaper, simplier set up & simplier to acquire for replacement.. though I can't says that I have ever blown a Sabertooth.
