Default Savox 1256

I have set up my new B44.1 with a Brushless SP 6.5T Motor & LRP SXX TC Speedo. I have used a Savox 1256 servo from my ex 1/8th Rallycross but have noticed that when I flick the steering left to right quickly it seems to be shutting every thing down (on/off) for a split second or so.......The servo seems to be drawing too much current perhaps?

Any ideas?

That's exactly the problem, fit a power cap to your receiver and everything will be fine!

Cheers Jamie, if you could yes please.
I take it that the power cap will need to be soldered onto the servo lead?

The power cap is attached to a servo plug and just plugs into a spare channel on the receiver.

Looks like this:
