Hi Everyone!
out of the blue, my 550 is not working...can't seem to go "forward". circles around, backs up, jerks forward an inch, circles around, etc. I cleaned off the sensors, no difference.
I've not yet taken it apart. Hoping this is a simple fix.
Any ideas or similar experience?
T'anks! :)
ETA: This is in warranty - 5 months old. Hoping not to hear the "G" (gearbox) word! :lol: |

| It could possibly be the proximity sensors located across the front bumper. You will probably have to just remove the bumper and clean them off or use an air compressor. |

| I would also check the sensor under the front wheel. The reason the wheel is white half and black half is there is a sensor under the wheel to tell it if the back wheels are moving and not the front. Thought it would stop when this happened knowing it was stuck on something but I would check it if all else fails. |
