my ax10 is glitching...any ideas?
 
hey guys, my ax10 glitches really bad anytime i get more then maybe 15 feet from it. i switched out the reciever and radio (thinking that was what was causing the problem) but it is still doing it. any ideas on what could be causing it?

Which stock radio? The more details you can give the easier it is to get help.

Is it the old am radio or the newer 2.4 radio?

a 2.4 radio will probably stop the glitching. I had the stock axial am radio and it glitched all the time

I think you may need caps on the motor when you run the am radio. Try to move the receiver away from the motor.

Most likely its your radio that is causing the problem...which is why everyone has made the jump to 2.4 systems.

Is your rx antenna in a tube or wrapped around something.

ya, the motor im running now does not have caps on it, im going to switch to my 55t novak and see if that helps because of the caps on it. and right now the rx antenna is wrapped around a plastic wire holder and servo taped on the inside of the roof of my tuber. could that be the problem?

Yes, all of that could be the problem.

I had glitching problems with mine and i was running a 2.4ghz rx/tx and turned out to be the stock motor DOA.. It was the Wraith 20t..

its not the radio, i switched the radio and recveiver and it did the same thing, i put my novak 55 turn and that solved it, thanks for the help everyone

So it was the motor?

sounds like it.. it seems weird because i run a hpi 55t crawling motor in my scx10 honcho with no problems..we'll see what it does after the esc swap im running a novak rooster esc in it right now but that is going in my ax10 today and the AE-2 esc is going in here.

You will like the AE2. Get the castle link though. I love mine, just fyi lipo cut off is set `ON' from factory.

Re: my ax10 is glitching...any ideas?
 
I think mostly it was the placment of my rx wire, I put it out the back of the tuber and it doesn't really glitch anymore. But I'm sure putting a motor in that has caps did the trick
