After installing my brushless system and putting everthing in my F201, I seem to have a major glitching problem. I get the car about 10-15 feet away from me and then it glitches but only at partial throttle, at full throttle its fine. It bad enough to have made the car swerve and clip a kerb hard enough to have now broken a lower suspension arm. Anyone know the cause??? I will put pictures of my setup in my showroom soon, so you can see how things are set out. Please someone help. I am sure the receiver is far away from the power wires and esc and motor etc. But any info is greatly helped.

Did you ever drop your hand set or your receiver's crystal? They are very delicate hence the name crystal. I'd take out the receiver and try it in another car. Try this. Turn on the F201 with stuff in it and raise it so the wheels don't touch the ground. Then walk away from the car using the gas and steering functions. See if it goes wild. If so, then take out the receiver and try the same thing in another car if possible. If it happens again, then it's either the radio, crystal set, or receiver. Maybe your battery in the radio was too low also. So many factors.

Found the problem. I put in my old Acoms 27 receiver and it works fine now, no glitches at all. I was using a Futaba R122JE Receiver, a el-cheepo one but it was almost new, no drops no crashes with it at all. But to get the acoms to fit the top of the receiver box had to come off, so now I will just put it in a rubber balloon for waterproofing.

thanks for the help
