Had it for awhile now love it, but i have recently been having trouble. It has the velineon brushless in it, i run 6cell 4200 matched battery stick 7.2 volts. Here's the problem plug everything in runs great for about 10-15 minutes then starts acting like radio interference, twicthes and throttles when i touch nothing. low voltage is turned off, fresh batteries in both controller and truck. I have also had it twicth and act up right after taking a decent crash. I try to reprogram the esc after it acts up and it won't go the "red mode" the light on the esc stays green and is none responsive to anything. If i let it sit for awhile 1 hour or more it work fine again and starts all over. Please help???

Almost makes me wonder if its a receiver issue not the speed control. Know anyone else with a traxxas rx you could try to see if thats it?

could be your crystals, they are easily damaged if abused, easy to change and only about 10 bucks  |

That does sound like a rx problem. You could eliminate that possibility by trying a buddy's tx/rx system to test your's out.
I have the Velineon system and the only problem I've had is having the esc drop out of race or standard mode into training mode while running it. It turned out I was overgeared, I dropped a few teeth on the pinion and that problem went away.

Sounds like a problem I had. i swapped radios and nothing. i pulled the pinion out and see if it would work and the battery was very weak even at full charge it would die out less the 5 min. you should try swapping batteries seemed to work for me. good luck man
