Hey guy I have a rampage mt pro and when I go to use it the steering and the throttle go all crazy. I have replaced the throttle servo and taken the kill switch off for now and it still does it. I have also replaced the receiver. I'm out of ideas except maybe it's possible for it to be the on/off switch or possibly the battery being to low and not holding a charge. If you have any ideas please please lmk I really want to take it out!!

I've experienced this exact problem once exceeding 7volts of battery input. Check you battery voltage and make sure it's no higher than 7volts.
Also switch may have short try replacing switch

I would throw the stock throttle servo in the garbage can before it destroys your truck. They are junk sorry to say. A Savox 1210 does the duties well. It is waterproof and lipo capable if you choose to go that route in the future. If I didn't have the Killer RC Superbee remote killswitch installed when I first got my MT I would have destroyed the truck. The throttle servo failed in the WOT position. Luckily I was able to hit the 3rd channel button and killed the engine. Was crazy watching that big truck doing donuts and whatever else it wanted. Wasn't a pleasant experience lol.

I had this problem with my Redcat Redcat Rampage. The problem turned out to having been a loose spark plug. After I tightened it, the problem stopped. I also had terrible glitching with a Rovan Buggy I have, and the problem was wires in the receiver box coming into conflict with each other. The moment I reorganized the wires in the receiver box, the glitching stopped. Best of luck.
