All of electronics work fine during this problem. I tried changing a receiver and using another receiver battery so it can't be from these.
I've seen it happen twice. Once because the vibrations from the motor, think I had a loose motor fin and then again because I let my lipo get to low. Are your batteries fully charge and holding power?
I have a question also for people who run electric of short course. I'm new to short course and need help badly lol ok since I will be running lipo to my reciever Spektrum 3300t, will I need a regulator for non HV servos? I bought the cheap savox 025# something but also have a 1256 for back up to my nitros that I'm gonna try in the truck. Not gonna race it. It's mostly just to drive and have fun. But I'm not trying to see or smell that Nasty smoke that comes out when u fry the electronic. Yes I've done it a few times lol yuck! Thanks
