Now today I bought a y adapter and plugged in the capacitor and my laps transponder into the adapter. Apparently the capacitor wasn't strong enough for the transponder because with that plugged in I had the same issues as before I installed the transponder. Fortunately I had a castle external bec in my kit that i never used so i soldered on the bec and removed the red wire from the esc to receiver just like instructions said. The issue now is the throttle response is really rough. I hold partial trigger and the truck sits there and jiggles until I give it about half throttle. Wtf, I'm stumped. If I remove the bec and plug everything back In the way it was before today (capacitor only) everything is smooth and fine. Should I sell this castle junk and switch to the tekin rs ( which I have no issues with in my losi 22)? Please help.

Thanks
