Hi everyone,
I took my Savage Flux XS from the attic, after not driving with it for at least a year.
Kids asked about it, and I thought: yeah, why not.
I managed to get it switched on, as I did with the remote control.
Except, the car didn't move.
My initial idea was the LiPo was empty, so I charged it.
The current situation can be seen in this clip:
The engine revs, or so it seems, but with a strange rattle.
The wheels don't spin. The car's not even moving slightly. Really: nothing.
I tried to reset the connection between remote & car. Front wheels react, and as you can see the engine seems to react, but the car doesn't move.
Is there something to be tightened up, moved a bit, or should I check deeper inside the car?
Quick note: while testing it, I tried to shut down and restart everything at least 30 times, tried to shake it, move it by pushing it a bit, nothing helped. But, it did kick off once in that hour that I took to try it getting forward. But not more than that one time.
Any pointers would be appreciated.
Cheers.
