A simple fix is to use some caps in series to stop the pt losing power it has been mentioned on the forum before.
Though I didn't do that as my quantum died and i got a ko and it has never missed laps since then.
I have 2 pts in 2 cars, one with a Q1 and one with a Q2. It has never missed a lap or ever had any problems with it. Both cars have KO servos one digital. Maybe your servo is drawing too much power?
