Hoyt Puck Throttle Jitters

Hello, Sorry if this topic is already covered.
My Hoyt Puck seems to be malfunctioning. When I go to throttle up I barely touch the joystick but the motors will sometimes lag and then go full throttle for about 2-300milliseconds. Was powerful enough to throw me off :skull_and_crossbones: but I’m okay. Any suggestions or do I just get a new one? The remote has been dropped a couple times but was working just fine.

I replaced all the bearings and made sure the wheels alone are good.
No issues with the ESC connection or the VESC app running motor detection or connecting the remote.


You’ve got a worn out pot, you should replace it. Preventing shocks/impacts on the remote in the future can significantly prolong their life.

also, looks like you have some vesc configuration issues, considering one motor has trouble starting.

Also, wth is going on with the wobble on the left wheel

Sorry this video was pre-operation where I had an exploded bearing probably from the crash. The wobble is fixed now and the motors spin evenly on both sides.

if by that you mean the usual breaking… because it seems more like that than worn out.

see hoyt puck pot psa

but yeah fix is new puck or replace pot. (which they sell)
