Reply to "RMT Beep traction problems"

I wonder what that loud clicking is, that doesn't sound right.  I can hold a BEEP in place while it spins, and it doesn't do that.  It's almost like one motor is not engaging the axle gear correctly and it's jumping on the gear.  That would CERTAINLY kill the pulling power!

Do either of the motors move at all when you remove the shell and try to wiggle them?  They should be solidly bolted to the frame.

You would have to lift the circuit board off, but first just look at the bottom of the BEEP.  You can see the bushings at the edge of the bottom plate, you should be able to see the flat's sticking out the edge.  Also, try turning each wheelset from below, if one turns, that's a big problem!

See indicated spots below, you can see the flat area of the bushing, if you don't see those on all wheels, the bushings are rotated incorrectly.
