I've checked and reset the speed control. I don't know how else to check this.

I'm to the point where i'm grasping at straws.

I had the same problem with my QC2... for some reason the speedo was was cutting in-and-out. You can try a shottky - the cheapest route. If that doesn't fix it (which I doubt it will), try lightly tapping on your speedo and seeing if it makes a difference. You could have something loose inside of it causing the problems (like mine was). I replaced the speedo and all problems when away. BUT before all that, I would check to make sure the lead running from the speedo to the receiver is not damaged (broken or crimped wires). Make sure it is plugged into the receiver.

I have never had a problem with my CP 19T motors - these things are bullet-proof.
