Fabia130vRS 2098 Posted January 31, 2023 Hi! Could somebody try to explain this? I bought a used ESC, a Carson Dragster XXS Plus 70A, it was sold in a Carson RTR vehicle with a 12T motor, should support 2s and 3s. When everything is connected it goes, after calibrating, into thermal shut-down. The motor stutters and gets warm, while the ESC gets untouchable hot. Also, the ESC has a sensor wire soldered onto the board, but only 5 wires? I have never seen something like this, looks to me like somebody played with solder ?

sosidge 624 Posted January 31, 2023 Well I found the manual - https://cdn.simba-dickie-group.de/downloads/500906076/500906076_DRAGSTER_XXS_9T.pdf Looks like a non-standard sensor implementation, so you can only use it with the Carson motor. But yes, that board looks like it has had a poor repair job on the sensor wire. I hope you didn't pay too much for it. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But wow, IF I really needed this ESC I would probably never find it. This is really a needle in a haystack. chances of findind a motor for this esc are probably 1:10000 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
