Ready to quite before I've started
 

I bought a sx3 in January n while putting my electrics in burn some wires so sent it way to be fixed . When got it back a very good friend of mine sorted it out n got it running , so very excited me went to my model club to my first race in 25 years only to be put off coz the car kept cutting out after bout 2/3 mins so my mate spent his race nite swapping bits around to fix it which didn't work :( so I stripped it all out to start again .but I am to proud to as for help as my mates son is a team driver and is busy so do I quite or keep trying ? I'm running a sp gt pro esc n a sp 6.5 motor if it help .

Savox servo? Big ol' capacitor plugged into the receiver!

Sounds like issues with your electrics.
Maybe try posting in the electrics thread to see if somebody can help there

My guess would be a heat issue. A couple of things to look at, what's size pinion and spur you using? It could be overheating due to being over geared, a smaller pinion would help. Try turning any boost and timing down too. Make sure the sp connectors are soldered good as well

Hi Darren

I will have a chat with Greg & give you a ring tomorrow night, don't give up, we will have another go at sorting it out & hopefully resolve your issues (or at least have a damn good try to sort it)
Speak to you soon

Im running a GT2.0 Pro with a SP 6.5t motor and also a savox 1256tg......(the 20kg one) for 3 meetings and no problems so far !!!

Probably down to thermal cut off and/or the Voltage cut off !!!

Will also help turning the DRRS down aswell as mine ran very hot with it on the default setting !!!
