4WD SC is THE most demanding power wise of any class
Wow, talk about leading people up the garden path.

I run Savox in all my cars, never had a glitching issue. But I use a decent radio (Airtronics) and decent ESC's (ie NOT A CASTLE) and I test the amp draw of the servo before I install it to make sure it's appropriate for the job.

Spektrum DSM is 7 or 8 yr old tech, Castle ESC's are well known for internal BEC issues (strange that the solution is a BEC they sell for an extra $20-$30)
