New Rs10 problem (maybe)
 

Just picked up a new rs10 from my lhs.. when im running the car at almost a 90 degree angle or it flips upside down, I loose all power to servos and motor.. but the speed control fan is still operating.. my question is does it have some type of cut off when it gets to a certain point.. it will resume to work after like 10 seconds of it i come up to it and shake the car ... i know it sounds stupid but ive been into r/c for my whole life and this is a new one to me. other then that im pretty impressed.. just wanted to make sure before i take it back.

mine has never done that :shock: i would call tech

Mine runs upside down fine. and that's why after 2 days the body is torn to snot. IT WILL flip it's self back over with the 4 wheel steer.

Check loose wires. It may not be that though if it's a persistant problem.

battery is getting close to dead?

If the problem only happens when it's 90 degrees, or even upside down...do what the other guys suggested and check all of your wiring connections. If everything is fine and the problem persists...shoot redcat an e-mail.

my sons dose the same thing i thought maybe it was a safty feature for that rig it seems like its an internal issue it bugs me that it dose that but its not so bad for him hes only 2 and 1/2 years old so

Mine was doing something similar. It was a loose connectin at the battery. Try a different battery pack and see if it still happens.

If you keep having problems after you check all the conections, send me a email and I will see what we can do for you!

just tried a new battery and it is still doing it.. checked all connections.. kinda irratating because while im crawling and it gets sideways it just shuts off.. going to hobby shop today and see what they can tell me.. thanks for the quick responses ..

okay took the crawler back hobby shop.. they replaced it with a brand new one.. thanks to hot rock hobbies in lake havasu city az.. they were very helpful..

Very cool...hopefully the new one will treat you well.
