I have a XS3 radio with a synthesised reciever in my tmaxx, i use a futaba 9405 throttle servo and a jr...well some kinda JR with 125oz, and .16 speed.
i was at the local track buzzing around, everything worked perfect then. My Girlfriend said..."i can drive like that.." so suckerleshly i handed her the controller, she made a few slower laps then started going faster and faster, i just turned my back and when i turned around my Maxx was cartwheeling down the track for about 25 feet!!! it fell upside down and stalled. she brought it back and we tried to start it, i noticed that the throttle servo was glitching like crazy...i tried everything on the spot. got home and took it all apart i noticed nothing physically wrong with the reciever or servo. in fact i plugged the steering into port 2 and it worked just fine. so i reconneded everything the way it was it still was glitching like crazy but just the throttle servo. then i scrolled through the settings on my controller, moved one of the settings i think it was TDB throttle dead band, from 0 to 10 then back to 0 now the servos works just like new. im stumped?! any ideas??
