Who knew you needed brakes??
I just installed an FOC on my revo 2.5 and ever since the truck needs like 50 yards on the brakes until it stops. I figured that brakes aren't that important but they are. I tried everything i tightened the rotors against the brakes and i tightened that little round gray thing (dont know what its called) but the brakes still dont work im stumped and idk how to import pictures in to this box[&o] so if u guys have any ideas tell me.
Thanks
Thanks

It's OK if it move on the shaft, you just don't want it to spin on the shaft. Hold the shaft in place, and then see if you can force the rotor to spin by hand.

Well you have the 2 little pins off the front drive shaft that shoud stop it from spinning on the shaft...I dunno maybe it's a servo alignment issue?

It might have something to do with the servo cuz when i hold the brakes in that rod that moves when u hit the gas and brakes (dont know name once again) doesnt pull back far enough for the brake pads to hit the rotors.
