Hi every one i got a tt-01 and a hitech aggressor 3 ch transmitter and for some reason the first few days it was doing fine but like 3 days after i drift around with it it just in times just go full throttle on me and hit things i thought it had dirt or water in the receiver and so i let it dry out for a few days and i blew in side of it. But it still dose the same thing

HFS-03MT is your Reciever Model not your ESC, the ESC is connected to the Motor...

If youve centred your trims on the radio etc sounds like your ESC is on the way out,which is surprising as the TEU-101BK is a tough lil esc too,has it ran in water? that usually kills them pretty quickly,the dust shouldnt be a problem mines been caked in mud,dust,crap loads of times and still runs fine but i know when it hits puddles it shutsdown for a while lol

check the attena's on both the transmitter and reciever, it might be loss of signal

Well water might be the problem because i use buckets to practice drifting, and i hit the buckets and sometimes there are water in them so water is the problem. so what is a good esc for a stock tt-01d? i need to buy the aluminum shaft soon to.

It shouldn't be the ESC. I think it is your receiver. ESC's can handle water 200% better than receivers which cannot tolerate any water. Try a different radio setup before you spend your hard earned money on something you may (probably) not need.

Just the Reciever..

So if you have a 27Mhz System, you need to buy a New 3-channel reciever, the thingy which all the wires plug into and has the Aerial wire comming out of it

If you have a 40Mhz system then you need to buy a new 40mhz 3-channel reciever..

Quickest way to tell what Mhz system you have is to look at the Crystals.. see what channel they are then buy a reciever to suite...

I'm having the same problem after running 16volts through my 12volt futaba magnum controller(two 7.2v packs connected to it because I was out of AA's). It was fine the first day, then I let a friend run it and ever since it looses signal at 20ft. I changed the to 3 different receivers with the same results. Finally I went to a different controller and it works fine.
