ZX5 RC Range 27 mhz

[dibble34]

Hi all

I have just fitted a LOSI 4.5 turn brushless combo to my ZX5. Very please so far and only using 60% power . However my radio range seems really poor, if i go too far away it really stutters like cogging? But when near me it will accelerate fine. I am on the middle of an estate and am sure i have had problems in the past with other RC stuff and range at certain times, just wanted to make sure this does not sound like a power/cogging problem as only happening at distance. The other thing is i have fitted the ESC next to the Ariel and the receiver is on the bar that goes from front to back over the drive shaft. I was using a NIMH stick pack 4500. Any assurance gratefully received, bit paranoid at the moment

Cheers

Dave
