fail safe testing

does anyone know of a way to test a fail safe

Start up your RC.
Place it against a wall.
Rev it up just a bit.
Shut off your TX.

Sure! If you turn your radio off the breaks should apply themselves. Of course try this with the vehicle not started.

Process of elimination,
Take the failsafe off and see if you still have the same issue.

The chances of a runaway are small.
You need to try something!

By the way you made 2 posts of the same subject. Which one do you want me to delete?
