volcano s30
I have a fairly new s30, and the problem i am having is every once and awhile wen i fire it up the darn thing goes in reverse!!! i have new batteries in it and haven't gotten the servos wet at all. then when it dies or i kill it and start it up it goes back to normal, also sometimes the throttle won't even go or it twitches or shakes, not sure what the prob is... please help

Do you mean the servos are reversed ?

No... he means the actual motor fires up in reverse.. I have witnessed some nitro motors can run in reverse at low rpm.
Just kill the motor pull the start once and start it back up, usually more common in new motors.
Glitchy servos are either interference or low batt. voltage.

Ive had that problem happen on my Volcano S30. Its happened twice and each time I've just turned off the truck, let it sit for a few minutes, then fired it back up.
I dont think this is a serious issue as nothing is broken or loose on my truck (Took apart the clutch bell and transmission the first time to be sure)
