Guys I turned off the LVC before driving it and I am using Trinity reference seven cell 8.4v 4600mah pack:

and MRC brain charger:

The Rustler is on Sports mode and today I again programmed the ESC.

1) I noticed that when I start to push throttle (When the throttle is very little pushed) I hear a clear "Takkkk Takkkk Trrrrrr Trrrrrr" voice. I tested the gear mesh, its fine and the voice keep coming. I think its coming from motor I guess and not from transmission.

2) Today it was a bit fast (Not that as I saw on youtube ppl having everything stock with seven cell) and I think there is some battery issue maybe as it was fast but after say less than 10 minutes the Rustler became slow instantly. So i had less than 10 minutes driving time. Do u think its a battery issue that the Rustler lost speed instantly in a flash or there are usually other reasons also?

3) When I push the full throttle to do wheelies, instead of wheelies the tires slips and the car rotates. So what could be the reason for it. I tried on plane road and on Pasco but the tires keep sliping from road on full instant throttle.

4) Is this happen with anyone that the Charger shows false charge as I asume maybe my charger stops charging and cant sense that the battery is fully charged and shows a false charge. Most of the time the newly charged battery gives good speed for 5 minutes or so and then lose speed in a flash.

Please reply.

Thanx!
