Default RE: Help: Savage Flux 2350

LOL, well every brand has their cult it seems.

Last night I was messing around in my basement, and all of the sudden the truck just stopped getting power. The batteries were fresh, only a week old if that and freshly charged. Dismissing an issue w/ the batteries themselves, I started taking the truck apart, checking all connections. Then when I got it all back together, I turned on the radio and ESC, I plugged one battery in and the connected for the other battery (from the ESC) touched the shock springs, and sparked and the truck made the startup sounds. I then switched batteries (to determine if battery or connector) and it didn't do it. So I plugged the good battery back in and grabbed another battery I had and it started right up. I put the dumpy battery on the charger and it read "No battery." Great. Luckily the place I got batteries from had just gotten more today so I swapped it out. I then found that Venom has been having a bit of quality control issues as of late.
