    Can you please provide a better explanation of what we are looking at in the video and post pictures of all of you settings.

    Is the motor not responding only when under load, as you posted an early testing video with them responding to a game?

    But the motors responded correctly in bench testing when they were not under load, is that correct?

    And can you please post pictures of all of your settings.
