Ok. So I ordered a new transmitter and that seems to be working. Kind of. This seems a little odd to me, but basically the Nimh battery still has a charge after not being charged for at least a year, maybe 2. Anyhow, after installing the transmitter (instructions indicated that is is bound at the factor) I power everything on. The transmitter lets me turn the wheels but the car won't go forward. I reset my ESC and reprogrammed and now I can actually use my car. I run it around the house for about 20 minutes until it just stops moving forward anymore. I can still turn the wheels at this point. I assume that the battery is dead. I charged the battery overnight and now I can't get the car to move at all. Wheels still turn but when I pull the trigger on the transmitter, the ESC just clicks and sometimes the car will jerk forward half an inch. Wheels don't spin at all. At a loss, because this is the problem I had with the car when I got it three years ago. Forums told me to replace ESC and motor since I had a brushed motor. Same problem, so I was told to replace battery, and finally the transmitter. The only part in my car that hasn't been replaced is the servo.
