I have a issue with my Traxxas ford fiesta

[FiestaRc’s]

I’m having an issue with my Traxxas Ford fiesta when I go ahead and turn on my remote and then plug in my battery turn on my ESC the issue is my ESC flash is green and I don’t have throttle. I don’t have steering I all of a sudden get steering and throttle, but right when I go with the throttle, I lose all control. If you know what is going on, please let me knowHere’s a video

Sounds Ike you might need to recalibrate the ESC. Your manual will have instructions, or youtube has lots of videos.

If memory serves me make sure tge throttle in yhe radio is centered. Also make sure your esc is in lvc mode for lipos, or lvc is off for nickle batteries.

Yeah I don’t have a throttle trim on my basic fiesta remote so I know it can’t be that thanks though I will have to check about the battery modes if not I’ll take a hour drive down to the hobby shop that fix’s cars

Yeah it’s all fixed now I had an extra receiver sitting around and it’s working out. I think there’s something wrong with the antenna or something cause all of a sudden I’d losing signal.

Yep, I was about to say that's the issue. When my VXL ejected itself it tore the cable that connects to the radio and did the same thing.
