Let me start off by saying I'm totally new to this. I just built a TA05-IFS. Installed a Novak GTX ESC, SR3000 rx, DX3 tx, Monster 11t double motor, all with Deans and Electrifly bullet connectors. Was bashing around my complex this evening when all of a sudden it would cut out. Motor would cut and steering would return to center, coast a bit and then cut back in. Kept doing this so I brought it in and put the battery on the charger. Ran it a couple minutes the day before on the same pack. Maybe it was the battery? Hi Energy, 3300mah Nimh stick pack. Will try again tomorrow with a fresh charge. Would a low battery cause a glitch like this or is there something wrong with my second hand electronics? Thanks.

Make sure you have your intenna FULLY extented out the car WITH the intenna tube.

Put TWO pieces of double sided tape between the car and the reciever.

Make sure your intenne is in ONE piece. Not frayed or cut in ANY way.


I like to mount FM and AM recivers AWAY from the motor and ESC.

It sounds like its on the reciever side, because the Number one this that leads to your problem is the reciever is BAD or it got damaged. Also your crystals could be broke.

Its either or, crystals or reciever. Try some tips above. If this problem happens again you have a damaged reciever for crystal.

Keep us updated

Thanks for the tips. I am using a 2.4ghz radio so no crystals. It worked fine the day before. I am going to mess with it tomorrow if I have time to see if I can duplicate the problem.
