hi im new to the r/c seen and would like some help please when i have my truck running i seem to have a lot of servo twitching going on when the control is about a meter away but when almost on top of the truck it stops twitching ant ideas cheers
 
What Controller are you using, is it am/fm or 2.4ghz..?

What servos and which servo (brake/throttle or steering)..?

Have you a Killer Bee Kill switch connected..?
 
what control system are you using???

older systems using crystals or new 2.4ghz???

I had a similar problem years ago and turned out 1 of my crystals had a loose pin and would cause twitching if I was any distance away at all..

If its 2.4ghz then it won't be that as no crystals are used..
check all cables are in good condition especially the short Ariel cable.
make sure all metal components on the car are tight too

If all else fails see if you can borrow or trial fit a new servo to make sure it is not on its was to the scrap bin...

good luck in finding the problem...
 
Try switching the servo leads around (brake/throttle with steering servo), if the other servo starts to twitch then its your radio gear/receiver thats faulty, plus loan a car battery as it might be a fault on that..
