That is your ESC. The internal BEC (battery eliminator circuit) is being overloaded and sucking power from the motor and trying to send it to the servo. An external BEC, like the Castle Creations unit, will help out a great deal with this situation. |

The 10 amp model for about $20 is what I run, it will cure the cutout/glitching when the wheels are turned.

Castle only sells 2 different BECs. The CCBEC and the CCBEC Pro. The original CCBEC is more than sufficient for your rig. http://www.rpphobby.com/product_p/cse095-0022-00.htm |

I run the blue castle one in my scx10/scorpion crossover with the Sidewinder ESC and haven't had any problems. The sidewinder esc is nice because you can completely customize your throttle along with other adjustments.
