Got a problem with my reedy. Sometimes when going over a jump it will act as though the throttle is sticking. Almost like an air leak.
Nothing is binding. I got it to do it on the bench ONCE. The throttle was closed yet the motor was still holding a high, steady rpm. Once i hit the brakes it goes away and the truck acts normal.
I really have no idea what it could be. Ive had motors with airleaks before but this sounds and acts different.
ANyone got any ideas? Am i just over thinking this? It doesnt happen down the straights either. Only in the air.
