No, I kept the 2pos controller, I got the timing just right now. I didn't want to have rely on my counting every time & it's impossible to hear if the furnace is running. I used a dab of red locktite on the union, probably stronger than epoxy.

Something odd though, sometimes while using the tracks, especially turning, the high amp draw on the 2x25 some how causes the 2pos esc to activate, the pins cycle in then out again. Were you using a 2pos esc too? This ever happen to you?
Joe, just a thought - are you running an external BEC, or receiver battery pack? If you are running on the ESC's internal BEC, a heavy current draw can over tax the ESC, and the internal BEC circuitry starts acting weird, or can cut out and make servos, or anything else plugged in, act strange or glitch.
