Default LRP F1 speed controller and 4 NiMH cells

I am running this in a Micro RS4 with a cheap Futaba Rx and stock motor. When the batteries are freshly charged everything is fine, but after a little use the problem starts. It seems like a radio glitch in the throttle, but only when the steering is locked.

My guess is that the BEC circuitry in the speed controller isn't stong enough with the 1.2V cells vs. the 1.5v alkalines.

Has anyone else had this problem, and if so, how did you solve it?

Hey!!!! I'm having this same !@#$! problem right now..... I noticed the problem almost entirely goes away if I hook up a receiver battery pack instead of running it right off the main battery....

Did you ever find a way to get it to work on your car?
