Default Arcing/Glitching Problem

Hey Guys,

I finally got my TXT-1 back together and it's playing up on me!

I have installed a Super Rooster and 2x 17T Venom Fireball motors in parrallel, I use Venom 3300mah packs and everything is wired up using Deans plugs. The problem is when I use reverse the Motors jerk and change direction, or it has a spastic, the steering sometimes glitches when i put it in reverse also! When this happens you can see a spark coming from where the brushes contact the comm. So I went through and re-wired the motors, installed capacitors and checked everything, everything seems fine, but it still does it, sometime's worse than others! This is really annoying me because I feel I've done all I can do, I've called a hobbyshop and they said it might have something to do with the aluminium ladder frame causing interference, but it can't be because It still happens when i run it out of the truck? Dunno, I hope some of you might be able to help me with this problem? I can't take it to a hobbyshop because the closest one is 2 days drive away.

Cheers

Dave
