the motor was ok for a little while, but then started to noticeabley get hotter and hotter. i tried enduro brushes to try stop the heat, decrease the timing a little, esc punch.. different esc.. different batterys and nothing seemed to work - this is then when the thermal shut downs occured and i contacted helger.

i think i agree with ian, if there was nothing wrong and it was 'useable' then they would of not sent the new arm, so am i right to assume they knew there is a problem but tried to save some ££ by giving me the replacement.. which i must add i think is used as there are some noticeable indents to the comm.

i am happy that they have at least tried to help in a way but in another way they hav'nt as the arm may not be orion - therefore making the motor a hybrid, making it illegal to use at brca sanctioned events.

i think i may try contact them to hear a more detailed explanation as saying corrosion isnt a manufacturers fault is abit weak.

Jimmy, i may take you up on that offer if nothing is solved! thanks do0d.
