How in the he'll are you burning up motors so fast? Are your axles binding?

This is the first motor I've been through. My stock ESC caught on fire when I first got it, not the motor. I have had it completely bound up though to where it wouldnt move.

oh, I thought you burnt up your first one too.

I found a place to get cheap motors if you want to go that route, or you could buy a rebuildable one for a bit more.

cheap non-rebuildable

little more expensive but rebuildable

If you stack them on top of each other they make a suction cup sound when you pull them apart. I think the foams are too stiff and I didn't put any weight in them, so we'll see how they work.
 
They are glue ons... blah they had the all black ones in the salvage yard for $9.99 for 4.

Ah yea didnt even catch that. Would be a sick wheel if they were beadlocks.
 
What can I do to the Wraith to make it have more power with out spending a pile of money. Would changing gears do much? I want less crawler and more hill killer. It was fun hitting some doubles today with it.

but a bigger brushless motor in it... something in the 4600-5700kv range... better invest in some spare parts haha.

if you want to go fast dont worry about the sensored motors, just sell your timbuk 2 and look for a mamba max pro and castle 5700.mmmmmmmmmm

what spur and pinion are you running?
 
My geuss would be stock, because I've never looked. Ill have to check it out. Ive thought about an exo but I dont think it would be much of a hill killer.
