On a similar note though, I just bought my Velineon and it seems like if I rolled the Slash, it would glitch and not respond to throttle inputs. I would just have to keep trying and then it would kick in. I also noticed that if I would nudge the car, it would kick in. Once it would start responding, it would work fine for a while. This was intermittent, but as I said earlier, it seemed to be happening when I rolled the truck.
By the way, as mentioned by snowboard094, don't turn of the low voltage cutoff if you are using LiPo. ONLY if you are using NimH.
