Default FailSafe

Hi everyone,

I have a Duratrax micro on it's way.

If my throttle were to stick, and the truck runs away, can I turn off the radio to break the connection and have the failsafe kick in?

Thanks

It sounds like it would work.

I thought it would*theoretically* but am looking for confirmation.

Thanks

I fyour throttle stick the failsafe is set to pull your throttle to the closed postiton and still allow steering it puts your brakes on. I also use a spring attached to my throttle arm and my exhaust.
