Strange radio gear problem (throttle and brake only)
Hi, eversince we had our national event held over the weekend i ve noticed my throttle/brake servo has all of a sudden gone haywire, when i accel its fine although it does take longer than usual to center itself. The other problem is it takes a good 5 secs for my brakes to come thats how slow its gone, now i ve never had these issues before. I ve changed servos and even put my HRS pack on and still same thing, slow centering of the throttl/brake servo whilst the brake doesnt even seem like it wants to do its job, ive tried playing around with the radio gear with no luck but i have found out if i reverse the channels arund on the reciever it springs back to normal operation! but then my steering suffers the same problem. I ve come to the the conclusion its surely a programming problem but its one of those things thats driving me mad as i cant seem to figure out the cause of the it! Any help would be awesome.

all fixed ae Fong 
it was the diode thats on the throtle, charger was a bit dodgy suspected it was the charger not putting out a consistant current and somehow effected the diode so we resoldered the joints and it was sweet, saves Fong $450 NZ
