Help!
my extreme stock is going into fail-safe mode when its plugged into the receiver, or when the car comes to a sharp halt on the track.
If I turn the car on with the receiver lead unplugged, the lights on the ESC come on and the esc fan powers up. If I then plug the lead into the receiver, the power to the fan shuts off and a orange/red solid light comes on and there is no response. However, if I "carefully" slide the receiver plug in - the ESC works correctly and the fan does not stop and I ahve power. However if the car then takes a knock or a sharp movement, the ESC looses all power again and goes into the mode above and will not work until I unplug it.
What could this be?
