Thanks for the great video ! That is really strange. Since it works with C batteries, there's definitely something going on with the motor. It doesn't like the extra voltage for some reason. I've never seen a motor do that.

Could you do one more test. Tape down the firing trigger, and repeat that test. There might be some wonky things going on in the trigger circuit board. The motion exhibited in your video is exactly what would happen if a capacitor was in series with the motor. And I know there is at least one capacitor on that trigger circuit board.

Let us know...
