Join me running my Schumacher Cougar LD2 2wd RC. Southport RCC. 28/05/23 Club Day.
The Glitch is back and this time she isn't playing nice. Started off strong and felt the car was back to itself. Then boom. A glitch in the matrix comes back with a warrant for Mr Mojo. By the end of the day I just wanted to go the pub and drown my sorrows. Tune in to see the problems unfold. As always thanks for tuning in, and see you in the comments.

I have just seen this video and feel your pain! I had the exact same thing. I thought I was going mad and the only one to have this problem. I replaced the caps, servo, motor, and receiver. Problem was the XR10, could only be, so purchased a new one and problem solved, even with the old receiver etc.

Weird ain't it. I hope it not the ESC as I hope to put it in a truck next season and run three classes. At least I'll know what it is if it happens again. Glad you got yours sorted pal. Thanks for tuning in.

You have to be running the special capacitor for if you plug the esc in backwards for it to protect it. Only when that esc is coupled with the black non polairty cap will it protect your esc, so i would guess the esc is the problem

I have just read that you reversed the polarity on the esc. This sacrifices the cap to save the esc damage so I suspect you are running with a dead cap. As it is happening down the straight I suspect the voltage is dropping at high rpm and not enough to power the servo . I recommend a new super capacitor . Mine is so strong you can operate the servo for about 20 seconds after unplugging the battery . You could maybe use another capacitor in the Rx to make sure there is enough juice for that servo or power it straight from the lipo by connecting the red servo wire to the pos esc lead

Yerhh blew the cap pack and replaced it with a new one out the bag. Still did it so changed it again for a second new one incase it was dud.. Previously I have increased the timing on the motor from 30 degree's to 35. What you are saying sounds interesting. Could the increased timing be drawing too much power? What cap pack do you use?

Hi Paul what radio are you using? A few of us racing at southport used to get the same problem with the sanwa mt6 radio, I ended up upgrading to the sanwa m17 and never had any more problems.

Hey David. Thank you for contacting me regrading this. Yerhh I have a M17. What receiver are you sing with the M17? I bought a Second RX493I? When I am driving, it feels like the old days when someone powers on with the same Crystal.

Ugh! This sucks when you blow something (reverse polarity) then have to go into debug mode to figure out what all was damaged by it. The ESC you're using is supposed to protect itself from that, but there are so many things in the chain of electronics that could be affected in weird and unwonderful ways. Need to try each item separately in a different car, driving it at your furthest comfortable range and see if it glitches at any time. I was going to suggest it may be a range issue, but the last time it glitched out right in front of you on the stand, so the distance was very minimal at that point. Send the ESC in for some repairs if you can (hopefully they don't just put it on a tester and return it). I've heard that Hobbywing can be very good with regard to customer service, give them a call and explain the issue, maybe they'll just send you a replacement (I've heard a few do that with Justock ESC's, where Hobbywing doesn't even want them returned). Good idea (though expensive) to have spare electronics "just in case". This is also why I try to make sure one of my leads is longer than the other going to the battery, such that the short one can't reach the pole it's not supposed to plug into. I use the same caps as you do too, much easier to pull out of the battery. Not sure if the harness may be bad too, something else to check as I've heard the sensor wires can have some strange effects when they short out. Looking good for the few laps we got to watch. Had a few nice tight lines in each of the corners (though on separate laps lol). You're slowly bringing it together and will soon have the tracks mastered! Thanks for sharing Paul Fhuz oot.

Yerhh this really pissed me off as the car felt awesome. I have my wires one short so it won't reach, but I put my lipo in upside down so the negative reached the positive. I always carry spares and they are easy to replace. I thought it was a speed issue, the car carrying too much as it is the quickest it has ever been. But I think the straight at Bury is quicker and longer and I don't get issue there. It really feels like the old days like when someone comes on same crystal as you. Yerhh it did it at the top corner too which tells me it isn't a range issue. I did a practice with no other cars running and it was fine. Once it glitches it does it under low speed too so it was either a wire or a radio issue. What people have said about the cap pack is interesting as it kind if makes sense. But I contacted supplier and they said standard cap pack is fine for all situations. The timing on the can being at 35 degrees is also not too much. But it is one thing I can reduce if the problem continues. Its a shame because I feel I am driving well at this new speed. I don't really want to slow the car down. I will look into sending the old esc back for testing as I would like to know it is OK so I can use it in something else. I really took my time laying everything out with this new stuff and used double sided velcro strips instead of cable ties so the wires can mive around and not be under any tension. I have a spare motor too to try Sunday If it continues. I replaced the end bell on current motor as sensor plug was damaged. It is the right end bell for the can so don't think that is the issue. I was was thinking it could be a timing issue after ut first started shooting off the track, but the glitch looks like it occurs under low load too so really don't know. The motor is the only thing left in it from the original system that gave me a glitch so if I replace that the problem has got to be sorted right? I am nit able to get it to the track to test it and want to test it under race conditions as that seems to be when the issue occurs. I will be able to use the old system in another rig but at the moment just wanted it sorted for the Regional at the weekend. Stay tuned to see how it goes. It is going to blow my mind if it glitches out in Sundays practice. I have kind of lost confidence in the car so it may take me a while to get up to speed.

Cheers for the input Jaymie. Yerhh I have since after this replaced the servo. I shortened the wire stupidly on the old one, but it was all done correctly with solder and heat shrink. Someone said it could be the sensor lead which I have also replaced since this.

@@jaymierc6807 I was looking at Power HD but they wasn't in stock. One thing I do know. This kind of all started after I connected ESC up the wrong way round. The ESC has the Polarity protection so I can not be sure if it is that. Some much has gone on with the thing now I just bit the Bullet and got new Brains for it. I was thinking about it today and a few months ago I changed the end bell on the motor as the sensor plug was damaged. I got same spec can ends for the wind of the motor and they went on no issues. I would think it maybe something to do with timing, but the way it glitches and moves around even off the power I think I am clutching at straws. Expect to see it on Ebay if it F@cks up this weekend at Ulverstone.

@@jaymierc6807 Will keep that in mind pal and added one to my Wishlist. One of the guys at Southport had a look and he said I had the wiring was laced up too tight and had used cable ties to secure it all. My sensor lead was close to one of the motor wires so we cut them all off and let them all swing, It still did it. I have a spare motor in my box so if it does it at Ulverstone practice I will swap it over. Only thing left is the tranny but I doubt it would be that. I had a race at Bury where it pissed it down so bought a radio bag thing so I don't get caught out again. I had a go with it on the track just me and it was fine. So If I go Southport on Saturday and it is fine, it maybe another story when other radios are being used. Fingers crossed.
