wiper resister sticks

Post by **mercdog** » Fri Jan 06, 2012 1:23 pm

Hey Everyone,
Gold pan RC10 w/ original resister wiper throttle. Problem is the wiper sticks on... but only when the rear tires touch the ground. If tires not touching ground wiper works fine. But when I set it down, throttle sticks.

Any ideas?

Thanks

More load.with the wheels moving the buggy means more current needing to pass through the wiper arm may be causing the metal on the arm to stick. Is a a mod motor? What battery are you running through it? Or it could just be binding, out of adjustment.
