Default Evader ST problem

I have an Evader ST running stock electronics, and an Epic 27 turn motor, I'll be running it, hit a bump and it just stops, I lightly kick the car and it starts running again. Also reverse doesn't seem to work always, you can hear the engine humm like it's trying to go but is jammed, again a kick usually gets it going. I've heard this could be symptoms of a hung brush, but I don't know anything about brushes, what do I have to do to fix that?

nope, don't even know what comm drops are. I opened it up and it was just dirty in the brush holder, it couldn't push out all the way, I haven't run it yet, but between that and the washer I found in the magnet I think I found the problem.
