Default Nitro MT out of control

Hey guyz, just got my nitro mt off a good friend of mine,

I've got a problem tho,

I took it out for a little spin before, and was just driving round at half throttle, and then without warning the car didnt respond, it just carried on driving quite fast it to a car tyre ( ouch ) i broke the front shock tower,

any1 know what this could be, it just loses control,

its not the batteries, ive checked them and now it wont even respond when i turn it on now, no throttle, no steering,

somethings wrong with it and i need to know what [] its killin me not havin a truck !

Flip the on/off switch over.

Hard bumps will make the switch go into the off position, just turn it over - fixed!

I just took my reciever switch out on my car, because it has caused me to loose control 4 times... also check the wiring to you batteries, look inside the reciever switch and see if the soldering came loose and apart... if you dont have a TRS, get one!.. many say get a failsafe, you dont really need to unless you are getting radio interference; witch in your case you are not... check all the wiring from the battery pack to the reciever for any breaks, cuts, etc.. It would not be the servo wires unless both servo wires got cut at the same time just from driving it(very unlikley). Hope that helps...
