Not sure where to start with this one. Went out and ran my Rampage tonight.
I have the following equipment:
killerbee killswitch
s3000 receiver
HPI SFL10 steering servo
Hitec 645MG
Redcat Rampage On/Off switch
Redcat Rampage stock 6v receiver battery
In the middle of a run, I went to turn the vehicle and it just stopped. Engine idled, no steering servo power, no throttle servo power. I looked through the little window and the killswitch was on (solid green) and the bind led was green.
The battery was fully charged before I left.
So I turned off the receiver in the truck, then turned off the transmitter. Walked back to my car, set it down then turned it back on. Everything worked. No glitches, no problems, no nothing.
Started the vehicle back up. Ran it for about 10-15 minutes with no problems. Then suddenly, idling engine, no steering, no throttle (or brake), everything was back to neutral again. Receiver bind led was on and the killswitch led was on. Turned off the receiver switch and the engine died (as it should). Turned off the transmitter.
Put the truck back into my car and drove home. Took it out, turned everything on and had everything back again.
Any ideas? I have two other vehicles using this same transmitter and receivers and have never had any problems with those. I had no problem until my throttle servo died last week. Replaced it with the hitec 645 but I see no problems with the servo at all. Kinda strange.
