So I finally got to run my 1/12 scale tonight.

I was running full size Jaco's as my lathe hasn't shown up and a 73 spur with a 53 pinion, Tekin RS Pro and an Orca 17.5. That gave me a rollout close to 111mm. I had plenty on the straight and didn't give up alot in the corners, but I did give up some. I was actually keeping up to a guy running 13.5 on the straight. I did try a 50t pinion but prefered the feel of the 53t. It made me be smoother on the throttle.

I did have one problem though. I am running the Novak smart boost and a couple of times I lost power to the receiver so it would go full throttle through the corner, generally straight into the boards. I have a 4 channel receiver and the thing is full with the ESC, servo, transponder and the Smart Boost. What can I do to help eliminate this? I know I could try a receiver pack but I just spent the money on the booster.
