Need to know what type of ESC you are using - in fact, it would be better if you gave us the details of the whole drive train, there's too many variables to give any positive answer.

Regards,

Ray.

[Capt Podge]

There's a wealth of detailed information on here www.modelboatmayhem.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,23.275.html

Just take your time and have a look through....I'm sure you will get there.

Regards,

Ray.

Click the reply button, type your message. Then under the white box click on the Attachments and other options sentence. Then use the browse button to select your file, repeat up to a maximum of 10 pics, then his the button that says post.

IF the photo's are small enough ie under 300kb in size than they will be added automatically to your post. If bigger than this you will need to use a program like PIXresizer to shrink them first.

hi ray pic s in attac I run two motors with 50 props painterman2

[Capt Podge]

First things first.

Is your battery fully charged ?
Have you followed the installation / set up instructions, for the P94, to the letter ? I know there is a set-up sequence which, if not followed correctly WILL have an effect on motors and/or steering.

Other than that I think I would be wise to open this discussion to the floor....

Regards,

Ray.

Hi ray will read a little more and then if still not working put it to the floor thanks painterman2

If you swap any motor connection at the corresponding terminal block you could deduce whether the props don't produce reverse thrust or whether it is a case of reduced power in one direction.

As you are following a Action electronics diagram, a private message to Inertia would go a long way to solving your problem

Do both motors seem to spin as fast backwards as forwards?

[painterman2]

hi all looking in to all aspects and will get back to all painterman2 thanks
