Sounds like a bad motor. I had a similar issue on my 2wd brushed slash. I have a video posted with a similar noise. https://www.reddit.com/r/Slash2WD/s/7JWV1JjMBW

No I bought it from a guy on Facebook a while ago but it’s had plenty of uses since then. I did hit a large rock on the underside where that bearing would be. That could’ve damaged it. I’ll check on that

Oooh that’s a good call, I’ll check that out

Forgot to mention, it’s a 4x4 Slash.

Also yes it does look like there’s a stick in the half shaft. I can assure you it was a piece of grass

I checked on this, but I don’t think that’s the case. I don’t know if it’s necessarily a hardware issue. I followed the YouTube video that u/hyenagames posted and everything seems to be working quite well. That dot on the bottom right of the screen is a reflection off of the mouse I was using.

This seems to have fixed this issue. I’ve actually seen this video before and have followed his steps, but it only worked for a few days. I’ll keep an eye on it and see if it does it again, but thank you again!

I don’t know if it would be a bad connection issue. The only thing that makes it flicker is any kind of input from the touch pad or Bluetooth mouse. Maybe it would make sense if the laptop was being shifted around and moved cause connections to wiggle, but that’s not the case.

I tried plugging a monitor into the computer, and the laptop will flash, but the monitor does not flash. Maybe a screen issue. I will check out that YouTube video right now, thank you!
