Traxxas link keeps loosing signal

[jschleer]

I upgraded a few months ago to the Traxxas link 2.4ghz setup and all of the sudden I keep loosing signal when the truck is about 30 ft. away. All batteries are charged. What the hell?

You might need to re-bind the radio. Sometimes that happens to 2.4 GHz radios.

I'm going by the instructions and trying re-bind the radio but it's just blinking and won't stop. it says it should take a few moments. I let it go for probably 30 min and it's not working!:\

It wouldn't hurt to check the voltage on the batterys. Rx should be around 6.5. Not sure on the tx.

Fresh charge on both!

Bad packs take a charge too. I'd physically check the voltage to be sure.

Finally got it to Bind! But, still loosing signal, in and out, about 40 ft away! What tha hell? Pack was reading 6.67 volts! :\
