Gearing a 2.5T motor 75/35 is not going to work, and the 66T spur will make it worse. If you're trying to dump the throttle with this setup you could be asking the battery to deliver over 500+ amps! I realize this is likely a high speed car, but you'll need to roll on the throttle a little bit here.
Understand that the ESC has NO control over the steering aside from powering the BEC. If you're amping out the battery in this manner, the BEC may get a ripple current through it the receiver cannot handle. A receiver cap may help squelch the noise and cure this, but the gearing you're trying to run isn't sustainable.
That makes alot of sense, And I was having issues with just rolling the throttle, I think the smallest i can go is 75/23, I'll see what happens and if i can make it work or just save this set up for a real touring car. But I guess we can rule out the motor and esc and I do thank you for all your help.
