Turnigy trackstar 120a turbo esc issue?
Hi everyone,
Im currently running a Turnigy trackstar 120a turbo esc with an Orca rx2 8.5t - I used to run the SP reventon R with SP 8.5t Recently I have been losing control of my car... fail safe is set and working. However mid race the car shoots off full throttle and i cant stop it. this doesnt happen every race... but is happening more frequently... i set the dead zone to a high level which initially seemed to help.. but back to square 1 and ideas why this is happening? all wires are connected, non are touching etc, all batteries are ok |

Nothing to do with the esc sounds like it's more likely to be a tx rx problem.

thanks
The tx is a standard TD dex210 RTR one which is less than a year old. Ive ordered a new tx so will give that a go and hopefully that'll resolve the issue.

Plug a power cap in the receiver. It sounds like it's browning out. That should sort it.

I've had the same problem with this esc but only a quick squirt Of full throttle kind of glitch that only lasts for a second. It was really bad at 1% dead band on esc. Better but still there on 3% (default) and totally fine on 5%. Tried a power cap , still had issue so fitted a external bec to power servo and rx. Also i have switched off theremal cut off and Lipo low voltage protection. car is now fine. Have you recently upgraded to a more powerful servo?
I think it was dead band mostly but the other changes seed to help too |
