Saturday at the races my throttle started working intermittenly. It seemed like the Spektrum failsafe was activating. Maybe dead battery. Put in a freshly charged batt. and still same thing. This would only happen if the engine was running. Weird. After charging my first batt. I still had the same thing. So I switched RX and same deal. About every 5th or 6th corner my throttle would just go to neutral, and then come back all of a sudden. I thought I was getting interference with a Spektrum! Today I found I had loose connection on battery wire to the RX. It was another really simple fix that kept me from racing. I don't think I'll ever get to finish the Mains. But I'll keep trying. Now I don't like these type of plugs anymore.

air8 with those symptoms I was going to suggest checking solder joints near the battery or switch if you use one. I almost hospitalized a marshal once when my battery wire broke
I tried shrinkwrap on the outputs and have had one rip last weekend but the front is still in tact. I usually regrease the driveshafts after every race day to help them last longer. Seems like some of the guys are going to the silicone cvd type shaft boots though I know this won't help the pins stay put. I usually red loctite all those set screws. I've had them spin a few times like Satoch describes on the outputs.
