|  Loose connections somewhere between your batteries and motors? Loose antenna connection? Check and re-check all your connections and go from there. |

| Before switching the entire radio, switch the crystals out and see if it make a difference. |

| well from what someone said about the battery connectors could be true if the truck is a year old those tamiya connectors could just be plain wore out. I would put some better connectors on the batterys and esc like powerpoles or deans. It would explain why it moves a couple feet and stops because the vibration losins the wires. Also check the antenna on the radio. |

| if you change plugs go deans or powerpole. Then you will never go back to the stock tamiya plug |
