Default need help..servo glitching

hi as you know i got my baja 5b for xmas but this afternoon when i went to run it the throttle servo on the car started to flicker like mad, every time i put a little bit of throttle on the controler.

i thought it could be that the reciver battery is not charged.

thx

It could be that,how was the steering did the truck get wet at all,where did this happen any power lines or other things that can cause a glitch...batterys in the tranmitter could be a number of things..is the crystal all the way in the reciever..

smell the servo..does it smell bunt..did or is it getting bound up...check all the wires also check the transmitter switch and make sure if all the switches to change servo directions are all the way to one side not just half way...other than that you need a better transmitter and reciever anyhow..the stock stuff suxxxxx sorry:(

I agree with fastflee, the stock stuff is not that good, it just happen to me recently , the steering servo when on the frits on my SS just like that.
Now I go with HITEC servos..

Default i could not believe it

rite i got my baja 5b rtr for x mas and 2 days ago the throttle servo started twitching like mad, so i took it to my lhs and i discover there is a problem in ether the radio, crystals, reciver or where you plug your servos in.

can you suggest anything at a low price if it is any of the problems above.

thanks

Hi,
Change your radio along with the receiver to Spektrum Technology. So I recommend Futaba 3PM, BTW are you from Dubai?

If so, go to Hobby Center Shop (Airport Road) and you should get it for 840 Dhs (229$)

Are you using the 3pm, if so make sure you are in pp mode and not hrs if you are using analog servos, hrs mode will make em jitter like that
