MSR X motor cut off...?

Gian8 · Feb 10, 2013, 06:00 PM

Hello everyone, tonight something wierd happen with my msr x, after a soft crash the throttle is behaving weird.
Immediately after the crash the motor started running slow, like if it was struggling to spin. I unplugged the battery, inspected it and everything seemed ok. So I tried again and this time it was working fine, but as soon I tried to go from zero to full throttle very quickly the power to the motor gets cut off...
I'm not extremely worried because the little heli still flies well and I never go full throttle so quickly, but I'd like to know what could be the problem. Shall I expect motor failure soon? Or could it be that I damaged the board?
Thank you!

It could be the motor or the speed controller (FET) on the board. But, you might simple try to rebind, just in case.

I don't know what to think... I rebinded few times with no success, but in the past 10 minutes (after another soft crash) it seems it has magically fixed itself..
Fingers crossed the problem won't present again!
Thanks a lot for your answer mate!
