Re: Interesting Jaguar Death
The FAQ had nothing... As for gear ratio, I don't know. It is a single CIM into a toughbox circa ?2010-2011? The wheel spins easily without the motor, no problem there, and with the motor it feels just like the rest of the wheels. The jag never went into thermal/over-current protection, it just turned off. I've had the jaguar apart, no aluminum chaff in it, no bridged traces, no scorch marks on the pcb. All of the MOSFETs look normal. I unplugged the fan to find if it was the source of the clicking, which it was not.

I almost think it's trying to boot, but cant, since the fan twitches.
