All right, I bought my DR maybe 2 month a go, and was runing fine with the stock parts, than I start upgrade feel things and have been a problem since.


No hobby shop arround here wants to deal with a redcat, bad service etc,.


I already invested a lot money to giveup now.


I want to ask anyone likes to help me make my DR runing perfect or just run.


I will pay the shipping. You can take your time,let me know what you need,I'll buy and send to you. I don't mind wait this point long I can play with later.


I just don't what to do anymore.


Thanks all.

Loganvass , I will send you a PM with my contact info. I would be more than happy to help you get the DR sorted out over the phone. If that doesn't work and you want to send it to me for repairs that'd be fine as well. Although I don't work for free, I am a very reasonable ( at least I like to think so ) guy to deal with. We will get her sorted one way or another. :)
 
The problem started after I put on all the upgrades, ran for 10 min. I brought it to the shop and he said the steering was a little stiff and makes the servo work hard and fry the reciver, I loosened some screws and my tires were turning smouth by hand, then I bought a futaba 3pm and the moment I connected the new reciver my battery wire melted. I brought to the shop again, this time he said my hitec 7555 servo wasn't working. My new pipe is leaking out a lot air,I have to work on that too.


I still have some upgrades but I am not very confortable with this hobby shop.


Feels like something is always breaking down.


Thanks

I've never had a receiver go out due to load on a servo. I've burnt or exploded enough servo's (standard and quarter scale) to fill a drawer but never burnt a receiver BEC before a servo. It is possible though but not common.


Also, on your problem with your pipe leaking. I'm assuming it's from an exhaust gasket leak. I run a copper gasket and seel it with high temp silicon. I only use a ball drive to semi tighten down the bolts. Then I go in with a standard ole allen and put some torque on them. Be sure to use a decent amount of red locktite on the bolts. A little more than usual. The reason behind this is because if you ever want to take em out all you have to do is turn the engine on and let it warm up. The engine heat melts the locktite for you.
