| Hesitation
I am a newbie here, so forgive me if this has been mentioned ( I haven't found anything), but, my new Nylint has a horrible hesitation with the throttle and the steering. Is this normal for these? And the range is the worst I have ever seen. I plan on installing real radio gear soon, but just thought I would ask if this was common. And yes, the batteries are fully charged and the radio battery is brand new. :?

What exactly do you mean by hesitation? Mine works perfectly fine. Range is further than I would actually use it for. Get a battery tester and test that 9v in your remote. Just because it is brand new doesn't mean its good. I've seen dead batteries fresh out of the pack. |

mine would do the same thing if it was getting close to goin out of range but never when it was close to the controller...how far away is the nylint when this hesitation is happening?

Mine was just doing the same for a while. I found that I was too giddy when opening it and didn't charge the full 6 hours, also being near metal surfaces interferes. It's fine now thank goodness. But uh yeah kill it, charge it 6, do it again then charge it for 4 everytime like it says in the manual.

| I could only go about 2-3 feet then it would stop. I checked the battery in the radio and it was good. I charged the pack the full 6 hours. Problem is solved now though. Installed servo, esc, and airtronics radio. Also extended wheelbase, paint detailed wheels, installed head and tail lights and modified the body. Works great now! |

Actually, Ford did build jeeps for WWII. I am a Ford guy, so I figured that I would consider my Jeep to be ford powered. Not unusual really. |
