hey ijnek,
something i got from novak website, though we should know this already...

Incorrect receiver placement. This is the most critical area for radio noise. Keep the receiver and the antenna away from all of the electronics. The battery, motor, speed control, and the motor and battery wires all radiate radio noise and can cause radio interference. Even a metal or graphite chassis can funnel radio noise from these components to the receiver. Try mounting the receiver on its edge. Try mounting the receiver on different edges by rotating the receiver. Certain components in the receiver can be polarized in relation to the interference, making one orientation better than the other.

Especially for BL motors where their current is alternating (AC). This can cause more interferance than that of a normal DC motor where the current is constant.... The best is to keep the receiver as far away as possible from the BL motor, ESC and it's power cables.

RX placing on the servo may cause some glitches also!!

What nitro racers do is to put the Rx in a rubber bicycle tube to shield it from vibration and unwanted noise.

If you didn't know, condoms are very thin

The rubber tube tire is thicker and besides isolating noises, it acts as a good dampening device.

With that being said, I hope you will not use rubber tube instead of a condom when the time comes for the appropriate situation because it's thicker !

if u do,u must b 1 of the few EP cars tat i c tat needs to shield ur rx with rubber.
try to fix ur problems 1st,dun ask for so many solutions n do nothing
.try to run ur car at another track,it seems tat we only get glitches running at giant...tat would b the best n fastest way to test...

hey bro,

i'm collecting ideas now...
this is wat i'm doing...

more ideas, more solutions to a problem.

after all, there's the saying "The more the merrier"...

but of course, using some barrier would be one of the last thing i try, do not want extra weight on my car...

will try out placing of my electronics first..
