I figure i will ask this here since most of you guys race and have 2.4 ghz controllers and digital servos.
alright i just got my controller back from warranty, its a 2.4 ghz mx3 fhss, and all they did was send me a new controller. And i went to drive my truck to day. and the throttle was glitching like crazy.
Im running a Ace ds10501 for steering and a stock mgt servo for throttle which isnt digital.
The throttle was glitching and not the steering.
Im using a hump pack for power and went to check how much juice was in there and the charger read a good 6v's
So i was wondering if im running digital every thing except one servo which is my throttle, will it be glitching a lot.
Or is there some kind of interference which i doubt it was.
If so i was going to get me a cheap digital servo for it.


Oh and i also notice that after the major glitching started happening my ace servo was really slow after that. and not much power.
And every time i hit the steering the throttle will move.

Im in need of some answers so please help me.

stock mgt servo= junk, upgrade that sucker. Look for exposed wire on both servos. Antenna has no metal contact to the truck. Chances are a good servo will solve the problem though. Most stock servos are half azz at best.

ya i guess i will just get a relatively cheap digital servo or something.

I run a DS1313 on Throttle/Brake and a ds1015 on my steering and i have never been happier. the DS1313 are decent priced too.

hey i found the problem.
It was my battery.
I put the old 4 double A pack in there and it work like a charm.
Hrmm[:-]
For some reason my pack wasnt putting ouf the nesassry volts.

Funny..same thing with a friends Traxxas..I traced it down to a bad bar in the receiver pack..what you described was exactly what was going on with my friends car..
