brakes not working properly..

[HuzpazA]

for some reason my brakes are weak. forward and reverse are fine but it wont stop well at all. any ideas?

[JoelRobbo]

i had that problem about one run before my motor went out

[Jimmie Neutron]

Have you checked the muffler bearings?
lol

Can you describe "weak"?
From full throttle on dry pavement, how far do you travel before you stop?

[HuzpazA]

6 feet or so, it seems. braking just iznt as powerful as it used to be.. i could hit em hard and it would roll over front ways but now it just slowly comes to a crawling stop

[Jimmie Neutron]

That is about how much distance mine travels...
Have you changed any radio settings? I have mine dialed back so I don't flip every time I touch the brakes.

[HuzpazA]

no, not intentionally at least... dont know how.

[Jimmie Neutron]

What radio do you have?

[HuzpazA]

one it came with, TQi 2.4ghz

Here is the manual:

Make sure that it has not gotten turned down...
but the motor/ESC does all the braking, so it could be on it's way out.

I think it's either your trim or your esc. I would try to reset the ESC.

[JoelRobbo]

how do you reset an esc?

[satyrisci]

do you have the EVX-2?

[HuzpazA]

ya EVX2. it was the motor, just died today. i heard the 775 was cheap anyway..
