Even a few people at the track are left scratching their heads in bewilderment .
Mmmmkay,
What I would do is turn the car on,have someone operate the throttle and steering,then whilst holding the car turn it upside down and check wires,battery,everything.
Sounds like a receiver short....
If nothing happens,borrow someone's Rx and go flip it.(not hard,but see if the problem persists).
The short may be a loose circuit board I'm figuring.
Cheers
