    Revo 3.3 runaway?

    So took it to the LHS and they said definitely the reverse servo went bad. Called Traxxas and got a replacement but bought the metal reverse servo at said LHS. Installed it plus the rpm tru track rear suspension arms and took it out yesterday and had no issues. Seems like reverse sitcks in the...

    Revo 3.3 runaway?

    I'm not really familliar with the 18650 Lithium cells. Could be theyre not consistently providing ample voltage to power optdrive but not sure.

    Revo 3.3 runaway?

    What about the voltage in the onboard 5 cell NiMH battery? Should be consistently delivering 6.5 volts. I'm actually seriously considering swapping it out for like a 2S Lipo or something like that and then upgrading the throttle and converting to single steering servo. If you think its the...

    Revo 3.3 runaway?

    Awesome! Thanks all for responding. I disconnected the servo from the optidrive and took it out in a fenced in soccer field and no runaways. I did try @Chubaka recommendation and just hooked the reverse sevrvo to the receiver and it still jammed up. Seems like that was the issue. Definitely...

    Revo 3.3 runaway?

    Hi there. So I’m new to nitro and have been lurking this forum as well as rc tech, rc universe and the traxxas forums just absorbing everything I can the last month. I’ve broken in my new Revo 3.3 and just started tank 6, tuning the carb for performance. This is not a tune question, so keep...
