Default Strange glitching issue

I have been hunting down this issue for awhile and so far, to no avail. It only happens when I turn right and sometimes when I am hard on the throttle. When I am turninging right, it will do it at any speed, and in reverse. Doesnt matter which direction its going but if the wheels are turned right, it glitches. ESC is new, motor is a stock 27t, gearing is 12/87, 5000mah 6 cell, stock 2.4ghz radio, new axial servo, and running 2.2 iroks with no servo saver. Motor and ESC never get hot when running. Deans plugs on the battery/esc

Have a spare spektrum dx3 I might try with a new reciever, tried a capacitor and it didnt help.

Any other ideas?

Thanks

If you have your steering gain on your controller turned up and/or your steering trim is off to the right or your servo arm was installed a couple teeth off, when you turn right your servo could be pulling too much voltage and could be browning out your electronics, check all those settings first but you may need a BEC to regulate the servo if the internal bec on the esc isnt enough to handle it.

Usually a factory servo doesnt have enough juice to brown out electronics though so good luck tracking down the problem.

Depending on what you find, maybe set steering trim to "0", remove servo arm/horn, center as close as you can, recheck steering EPA's (endpoint adjustments).

I like to set the EPA's just short of mechanical bind, this allows for a bit of servo movement and a few degrees of less movement is waaaaaay better than a "brownout" of the RX.
