Is your battery charged? Are the throttle/steering servos moving? If the battery is charged, everything is hooked up and no servo is responding, it's probably your radio (either the receiver or the transmitter). If you find this to be the case, just contact Redcat, they have good customer support and will replace the problematic parts.

i guess ill find out right now if it was my battery.

and yeah the were moving a little and then they would just stop

well same thing happened the throttle one worked a little bit, but the steering didnt move at all. i have a full charged battery as well. im just not sure if its the steering servos too or what? im sure its probably my receiver and transmitter

Check your wires and make sure they are all fully seated into the receiver.

Maybe also check and make sure the receiver is getting power (I'm thinking faulty on/off switch or some other bad connection).

got my truck running great! and about twenty minutes ago my differential mount melted. i think my gear pins were somehow rubbing up against it and just flat melted it. my truck started running slower. going to upgrade to the aluminum diff mount. are there any other ideas of maybe why it started rubbing like that and decreasing speed?

What was the electrical issue?
