I have a arrma typhon 4x4 the green one. I can’t seem to figure out what’s wrong with it. I really need help. It comes on I can turn the wheels, but when I push the Throttle it doesn’t move
 
Welcome in @TreyDay60 ,
I would start with re-binding it and then calibrate. Follow your user manual and it should straighten it right up.

Welcome to RCT!

Sounds like the motor is dead, brushed motors have a very short lifespan normally.



@Tunedpipe Offers good advice too.
 
That would be my second suggestion from @Rob66
I agree, brushed motors don't last long at all. When I bought my Typhon Mega, I instantly put in a brushless system and didn't even run the brushed motor.
 
Is your throttle trim zeroed on the transmitter when you turn it on? If your throttle trim knob isn't centered when you turn it on, the ESC can go into failsafe mode and not allow you to run the vehicle.

Welcome to the fun house bud. I agree with all the above. I would start with re binding and calibrating. The controller to the reciver. When doing so make sure all your controllers trims are set to zero. Is this the first time running the RC. Or this the first time thus has happened. Did you do any upgrading to any of the electronics lately?

Let me check

I can’t find the user manual 🤦🏾‍♂️

How can I get it out of failsafe mode

I upgraded it to brushless I think that what it’s call. Upgraded the pinion gear and battery

rebond.recalibrate. go thru manual. check radio settings
 
You can find the manual for almost anything online. As said, you will need to calibrate the ESC. Usually, you hold the button on the ESC down when you power it on to go into calibration mode. But without knowing anything about what you have done to your rig, it's hard to help ya. Youtube usually has videos that will help.
