my Mini t is giving me some problems. it works fine as long as it's about ten feet from the TX, but after that it just stops, if i walk towards it it will start up again, but everything is very jumpy? steering, throttle ect. i have new batteries in the TX, and i checked the Antenna wire and it seems good no breaks or cracks, is my ESC/RX going? or could it be something else?
 
Does the mini T have the crappy solid wire antennae with no insulation over it like the micro t?

If so, I replace mine with a piece of inner CAT 5 segment, solid cooper, and no more issues since.
 
It is probably the ESC/RX board going bad. If you have a Spektrum TX, they have a new board that has a 2.4 GHz RX/ESC combo.
 
If it's an all in one board like the micros, and you think it's bad anyway, open it up and check where the antennae connects to the board. Mine was loose, I redid it and it's been good ever since.
