ok well i cant seem to find a glitch anywhere. but when i start my hellfire it automatically goes WOT. no wires are touching metal. also when i put the glo ingitor in the cooling head and jiggle it around, the both servos go nuts. what could it be?

A possessed Hellfire? To exorcise the demon do this!
mash: Sorry, not helping.

See if a wire passes by the spur gear got chewed up. Mine would do that.. In fact, turn everything on and roll it back and forth a bit and see what happens.

wire is fine. rolled it back and forth and nothing. looking for this glitch all night. ive tried 2 controllers and 2 recievers. about ready to throw it at a wall.
also tried a different throttle servo. wtf?

Did you check the throttle trim on your remote? Sometimes the simplest solutions are the last ones we think of. Doesn't explain the glitching with the ignitor tho.

how would that do anything? the servo sits closed when its not running then when you start it it goes nuts

Is the steering servo also going nuts?

Take all the radio stuff out of the truck, and test it on its own. Make sure it functions correctly. This way you can start to narrow down the possible causes of the problem.

So let me get this straight. Are you saying that everything works fine and only glitches once you start the engine?
my head hurts - AddictedtoNITRO - 04-09-2007
