Oh trust me, I have wiggled and jiggled every wire on the thing but can't get it definitely do it if I wiggle one thing a certain way. Thats why I'm so confused, I had loose connections on cars before and they were easy to find by wiggling wires but not in this case.
I swapped out the receiver from the one in my buggy and ran a battery through that and got it to do it with that receiver also so that rules out the receiver being faulty if both receivers do the same thing, right? I'm starting to wonder if theres a bad connection INSIDE my battery. I have been using the same battery since day one and even though it charges fine and I wiggle the battery leads and nothing happens doesn't mean it can't be faulty inside, right? The fact that I can get it to act the same way with two completely seperate motor/esc setups (at least to me) rules out the motor or ESC having a bad connection. And I ruled out the receiver, so the battery is the only thing left.

Well I like them because under normal driving circumstances they last very well, and even on my basher they hold up very well, like all ball cups they will eventually wear out, I have had mine on for about a year and they are still very hard to get off if I try to tighten the ball diff so they are not to bad, and they are also only 5$ for all around
