Default Crashed MT2

Hi im new to the whole nitro R/C Game, I baught a MT 2 with the T-15 engion.

I had it out today and driving it around and after about 5 or so mins the car shot off at full speed with no responce from the controler. It then hit a very large rock and a wheel flew off then hit another rock and a second wheel flew off lol .

Im just wondering if anyone knows any reasons for the car doing this.

Switch switing off ?

Carb Geting jammed ?

Radio Interference ?

Tuned the car wrong ?.

Also if anyone knows of anyways to stop this from ocurring again

Cheers

im also new, and also just got an mt2 a few days ago. maybe you need a failsafe on your truck. im guessing, it might be radio interference. do you have a failsafe installed on it?

Get a failsafe, and throttle return spring. This probably happened due to interference, or your battery coming unplugged.

it is possible that one of your batteries for the servo's has popped out, whcih jammed it in full throttle, and truck ran out of fuel, causing it to shut off, and since the battery popped out you had no control over the truck

also grab a 6 volt reciever pack and a charger. so this does not happen again. 6 volt pack and fail safe for the win.
