Check the sensor wire, and as mentioned, the reciever could be the prob, it may brown out!

Make sure you motor wires aren't intermittently touching

Glitching or Cogging?

If you are glitching the whole thing will be twitchy even the steering, that will be the weak BEC in the Mamba Max Pro speed control and is a known issue. That being said I would get a glitch buster on that, expect to spend $6 - $15 on this depending on the brand you decide on. They are just a capacitor that you plug into the receiver to keep the power from rippling or browning out, with your ESC they work like magic. I would put one the Max Pro as a matter of course even if you seem to be getting away without it.

If you are cogging that will be a jittery start as your motor is at low RPM, that can be a bad sensor board in the motor or a loose or bad sensor cable. Most sensored motors will run without the cable / sensor assembly hooked up, but they will cog at low RPM. If you still have issues after putting on a glitch buster I would look into the sensor setup, cable is cheaper and will on day be needed anyway if you have to take a blind guess troubleshooting a sensor issue.
