If so, when you free wheel the car (hold it by hand and accelerate) and let off the throttle, do the rear wheels keep spinning or do they stop within a second or so?

When I do this, my rear wheels stop spinning within a second or so, but the front wheels keep spinning much longer. If this normal? Or should the rear wheels keep spinning.

And I have all brake dialed out of the radio and ESC.

TIA!!

With the clicker installed the front wheels become "disconnected" from the motor off power so they will spin longer just do to no being tied to the motor.


My rears spin for a couple seconds after I let off the throttle.


Sounds like you have some extra resistance somewhere in your drivetrain.


My gear mesh was a little tight at first and I was getting the same thing that you describe. I would check it first the check belt tension.

Thanks for the advice. I think the rear belt maybe too tight, I may have to adjust it to the loosest setting.
