Hopefully that is what caused it. I'll be fixing that as well as braiding the wires to the motor and cleaning up all the rest of the wiring (try to always do that) when I rebuild the truck this evening.
Spektrum Failsafe - always sets itself during the binding. If you want it to brake then hold the brake on when turning on the TX during binding. If you let it sit at neutral then that's what the failsafe will default to, neutral. Same with the steering, if you leave it centered while binding it will default to center on failsafe.
Thanks, I missed that part but I will make sure to set it to either brake or neutral.
