Victor Resseting
Hey, after a long time, we finnaly got our gun wheels spinning. We had problems with the chain/sprockets binding. It would get stuck in the middle of turning and wouldn't spin after about 5 seconds. The victor was constantly reseting.
So finally we took it apart and got the whole system spinning freely. When we hooked it up and turned it on, the motor was spinning for about 25 seconds... everything was going good... then the spike reset and the motor slowed down, then 3 seconds later, it reset and slowed down again... and repeated until nothing was left. The chains and sprokets still spin freely since we checked but this happens everytime. First we thought it was a battey, but then every battery we put in... it kept doing it. All about the same time.
Could this be a problem with the Victor? Maybe a faulty Victor or could there still be a spot in the system that doesn't spin feely. The weird thing is... it spins very well until it gets to 20-25 seconds in. We are gonna swap out victors tomorow to check it but does someone else have any other suggestions about this?
