servo problem

[dravage]

for some reason my electronics would work without the engine on but when the engine is running and i pull the throttle my servos don't respond anymore and it will go on and off the throttle and steer randomly so any ideas?

Check and make sure your antenna isn't touching anything metal. I'd start there first and post back with result. Also look for frays while your at it.

the antenna isnt touching any metal and i don't see any fraying

Is it in a ant. tube or exposed?

 

[dravage]

its in the antenna tube

 

[xtremsavage]

Did you pull it out of the tube and check it?

 

[dravage]

nope ill go try that any idea what i should be looking for besides something out of the ordinary

 

[xtremsavage]

Just lookin for any bare wire showing and things like that. It may also have a loose connection on the circuit board.

Other possible thoughts are low battery or possibly moisture in the receiver.

ok found the problem it was the receiver so i replaced with the one in my jato temporarily until i can get a new one
