Ok, so i'm new to this whole RC Nitro scene, and just picked up my first (used) Nitro RS4 3.. Yesterday, I fired it up, and wanted to take it for a quick spin. It had rained earlier, but the roads were pretty much dry. Well, I guess they weren't as dry as I thought, with a big puddle next to a curb!! And what do you know, my car happens to land in a 4-5 inch puddle. The car just died.

So I took it back inside, tried wiping everything off, and just let it sit overnight. This morning, I tried starting it, and it did start up, so I think the engine is fine. However, I did notice something very strange. My steering works, and my throttle also works, but when I go to brake, the throttle linkage, is twitching.

Please help me as I have no clue what to do with this thing!!

TIA

i think its either you need new batteries or a lil water got in the servo's

Ok, so i'll try to replace the batteries, but if i did get some water in the servo's, what should I do, and how much you think this is gonna cost me? Thanks for the quick reply!!

newbie003

first replace the batteries and see what happens. for a new servo pretty good servo it will cost about 30 and up

Just saw another persons post---you think it could be the ESC?? I dunno what changing that entails, if I have to change my radio as well or what?

newbie003

dont know anything about any esc or something but, no you will only have to change the servo it looks like this
