Default spektrum problem

Just wondering if anyone would know what would cause all radio reception to be lost after running a few laps. I have re-bound the receiver and transmitter and still no luck, the car and transmitter both still have power after this happens. I can turn the transmitter off and back on and it will work for 4-5 more laps and quit agin. I have an m11 radio with the plug in module. Thought it was the switch but it stillhas power after this happens, could it be a bad solder joint on the batt? could it be a bad receiver (cracked board inside). thanks for any help..

Try blowing out the receiver with compressed air. Some Spektrums seem very sensitive to dust.

first replace the servo connecters if the progs are loose in them , and make sure the plug is in all the way .


let me guess you have the orginal, speckum system the gray one ? i have the same thing and all my, connections are tight and i even tried. to rebind it and it whould just shut off, when you have the engine running ? i even had foam in the radio box too .

i think its a bad computer chip in, it or something i sent out my to get repaired.

If its the dx 3.0 then its prob the rx, they had a prob for awhile with loosing bind, send it in to get repaired. Good luck
