Im talking about the connections plug not how the wire are in the plugs.so there for it will still somewhat work. You get more current flow by having you packed pluged up the correct way. You get less flow having you packed plug into the charge lead which is what im suggestion to look at. The charge lead should be black and the battey lead should be red( plug battery into red). Now on that same side with the red plug there should be a black one that goes to the rx. Switch are always hooked up this way.

You know.. The more i think of it the more i think it could be the on and off switch cause that happened to me before on another rc . The more i think of it now. The more i think its the switch cause when i was driving it it was like it would reset itself. So im going to try plugging the battery direct to the reciever. It only starts acting up a while after the truck is on. Its never right away. Another thing too is i have the failsafe activated right now and when i lost throttle and brake the failsafe didnt kick on. Shouldnt it have come on if i lost signal?

I've watched rcnightmare before, just not recently enough to remember anything specific about him but I don't remember it being torturous.

I only watch these guys for vehicle/product reviews (mostly Jang for that) and any builds I find interesting. It doesn't matter who makes the video if it helps you out though. Even if it does take 10 videos and 5 hours of your life away! Lol
Alright brother I can't keep going back and forth you're def one of those guys,,

well i got to run the savage today, i was kinda worried to drive it again since i had some issues with the glitchy electronics but i gave it another shot. i went out and bought a new 6 cell rx pack and charged it up and someone gave me a idea on plugging the battery directly to the rx to see if maybe the switch was bad.. drove it for almost 30 min with no issues so i tried plugging the switch back in.. drove it for 10 more min like that and still no glitches.. thing ran flawless today no problems what so ever.. got it tuned in perfect and the thing was nuts... im only 8 tanks in and this thing is awesome.. next thing im gonna get is the ercm pipe.. that should wake it up right? lol

like it was stated before. read the engine break in method by Ron Paris of paris picco racing engines. the heat cycle break in method is by far best way to break an engine in period. seen up to 7 to 8 gallons on engines broken in that way. dont believe in first tank on the box. read the bible. follow it. you wont regret it. between ron paris and some guy name squirrellrod. i think ill go with rons method.
