Default savage losses connection

i was driving my savage one day for like half an hour and every thing was fine but all of a sudden my truck took off by it's self and it was only like 10 ft away from me and it just kept going faster and farther away . after it crashed and i got up to it it was fine and had connection again i don't know y it did that could it be that the batteries in my remote could be going dead?

Yup a good failsafe and if you have not done so yet maybe a 6.0 hump pack for the truck this will give more power to everything on-board. And the transmitter batteries may need to be changed.

Well thats pretty close i run mine til i get like a 9.8 9.7 then i change them. So chances are where ever you are driving it at your getting interference. You could also try a different location and see if you have any problems just make sure you have a back-up plan in case it runs again.
