There are a few different reasons an RC car could get stuck in reverse. Sometimes, you might only need to reprogram the hardware. Worst case scenario, you might need to replace gears, but I\u2019ll go through all the possibilities throughout this post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your RC could be stuck in reverse if the brake and throttle are reversed. Resetting the ESC or transmitter can solve this problem. If the gears are damaged, you\u2019ll have to replace them. Shifting gears too quickly can also prevent them from changing. With nitro RC’s, the idle might be too high.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I\u2019ll cover these and more while explaining how to resolve them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Before we get deep into the problems and solutions, I recommend going through the warranty process if you believe there\u2019s no physical damage involved. You should go through the basic fixes like a transmitter and ESC calibration, but you shouldn\u2019t have to open the unit up and mess with the gears if it\u2019s a new car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
