Re: Tetrix Motor Fix

The fuses being mentioned in various places are part of the battery pack. They are mini blade types and reside inside that black bump on one of the wires coming out of the battery pack. If your motor(s) are not running, check the fuses first. Either remove it and check for continuity or just check the wires out of the battery pack for voltage.

A team update has allowed us to use lower amperage fuses. We're currently running one motor on a 4A fuse. I recommend getting a few lower amperage fuses at the very least. I cannot tell you anything about the thermal protector that is available. I also await reports from those who are using them.
