Wraith Issue

[My(2)Cents]

Well my wraith is only about a month old and I have my first problem. It has not seen mud or water just driving it in my back yard in the grass and rocks.

What is does is when going at a steady throttle speed it will shudder. What I mean is I am holding the throttle at a steady pace and, the truck seems to lose signal for a split second at a time, it travels like I am pulling the throttle and letting it go constantly. And then it sometimes when I turn left on the control it just stays straight, it never has a problem turning right however.

Both batteries are fully charged when this happens.

Not sure what to do to troubleshoot.

I had a similar problem with my wraith. My charger said my lipo was charged but I'd plug it into the wraith and only have half throttle and if I turn left or right I wouldn't have any power. Come to find out since my battery leads use bullet connectors to plug into the battery, I was losing voltage at those bullets. So I polished them up and my deans connectors and my power had come back. Hope this may help.

really no other ideas?

bump on this problem.

I noticed that if I am driving straight forward and backwards there is no jerking or shuddering but... if I turn the acceleration seems to jerk and shudder.

This doesn't happen every time but often enough that it is very annoying.

The servo might be causing some radio interference. Traxxas 2075 servos are notorious for this same issue. Try another servo if you are able to.
