weird!!!
 
ok so i was just out drifting my tc4 *well trying to drift* and i had to going in circles for fun cause the batter was dying and all of a sudden it just kept going in circles... i tried stopping it with the controll and it wouldnt stop..so it eventually just died because the batter was dying soon anyways...is this a bad thing..or is it just becuase the batter was dying?

This normally happens with mechanical speed controls (variable resistor), you drive too long after the cells are 'flat' and there just isn't enough power in the battery pack to move the steering servo because the motor is taking all the current

...when this happens...PICK THE CAR UP AND DISCONNECT THE BATTERY ;)

Battery Cuurent was not enough to keep the reciever powewred and it lost Signal

Dont race the car down to theis Level..

If you want to tdo that , Then get the Wheels off the Ground and let it run flat.. Next time it may spin off into a Drain

ok thanks...by the way it wasnt the stock tc4 one...i accidentally blew that one a few weeks back and had the hobbie store put in a esc...which is probably not as good as the stock tc4 one...ok guys thanks for the advice!
