very weird.
It's weird cause it's an intermittent problem. Not sure if it is a combination of the pro4,rx8 and savox servo drawing too much amps at the same time or if it possibly is another problem like my transmitter not having enough volts/charge?? Randy Pike said maybe my transmitter is frequency hopping?? He also said to throw a cap on, so fingers crossed.
I have a spectrum cap that I'm going to throw in the receiver to see if it fixes the problem.
I run the same electronics and have had the same issue. A cap fixes it. I run a cap in all my cars that have savox servos. The savox servo is known to be a power hog.
