Default Losing signal when car is upside down??

The last couple times I have raced at rev my car has lost signal when I crashed and flipped over.. I tried re-binding and ever put in a backup RX but it still did it.. Any ideas as to why this is happening??

Car= Losi 2.0
Radio= M11x with new RX
Servos= Hitec 7955
Losi Lipo.

thats a new one. you said u tried a new receiver. when it comes to electronics it can be switch,battery,receiver,servo, or radio. The first i would check it receiver then radio,switch,battery, and last servo. I would bet you have an exposed wire somewhere on ur switch, but i havent seen it

I don't use a switch. I have seen to many problems with the switch. I just use a minideans on the e d of the battery pack and plug it into a lead that runs to the receiver. No switch no switch problems.
