FM radio will help a bunch.
Also see if you have a resistor spark plug. If not get one it will also help. Make shure the antenna is not touching any metal.

FM radio and new servos. Traxxas servos go bad real quick. They are very fragile.

check for wires that have knicks in them........I found out that most problems are of that.... check to see that your motor is mounted with rubber grommits between the hull and motor mounts. Just for everyones information Traxxas radio and equipment are re-tagged futaba stuff. A fm radio is higly recommended along with a fail safe your problem may be elsewhere
