Default glitching problem... help!

ok I am having some weird glitching problems. my car will just randomly go full brakes. my setup is a jr z-1 radio, spectrum module, soektrum micro receiver, savox 1251mg servo, orion r10 pro, reedy mach 2 6.5. I am already running a racers edge capacitor. it seems when I put the antenna from the receiver further away from the motor it does it a lot less. could it being too close to the motor affect it?

any help is appreciated.

Open the receiver, brush out the small pieces of tire rubber that gets in there. Reassemble and try it again. This is what a former spektrum distributor told me to do and it really worked.

Never used a Spektrum but have been hearing and reading about glitching problems when using spektrum and savox servos.

try recalibrating the ESc to the radio; I was going to suggest a cap, but I see you already have one
is your Rx DSM1 or DSM2 protocol?

I have done that a few times and the same thing happened. and it is a dsm1 receiver. could not having the latest orion firmware be causing this? I think I might also be in the stock profile? I thought someone said I was at my local track.

I bought it brand new to try and solve the problem but It seems like it only happens towards the end of the 5 min race or when I am steering and hit the throttle right away. could it be the lvc is too high? like the pack is going under voltage for a split second? its a 4500 mah 45c orion carbon molecular pack.
