I bought a sx3 in January n while putting my electrics in burn some wires so sent it way to be fixed . When got it back a very good friend of mine sorted it out n got it running , so very excited me went to my model club to my first race in 25 years only to be put off coz the car kept cutting out after bout 2/3 mins so my mate spent his race nite swapping bits around to fix it which didn't work so I stripped it all out to start again .but I am to proud to as for help as my mates son is a team driver and is busy so do I quite or keep trying ? I'm running a sp gt pro esc n a sp 6.5 motor if it help .

Sounds like issues with your electrics.
Maybe try posting in the electrics thread to see if somebody can help there

My guess would be a heat issue. A couple of things to look at, what's size pinion and spur you using? It could be overheating due to being over geared, a smaller pinion would help. Try turning any boost and timing down too. Make sure the sp connectors are soldered good as well

Hi Darren

I will have a chat with Greg & give you a ring tomorrow night, don't give up, we will have another go at sorting it out & hopefully resolve your issues (or at least have a damn good try to sort it)
Speak to you soon

Barry

Im running a GT2.0 Pro with a SP 6.5t motor and also a savox 1256tg......(the 20kg one) for 3 meetings and no problems so far !!!

Probably down to thermal cut off and/or the Voltage cut off !!!

Will also help turning the DRRS down aswell as mine ran very hot with it on the default setting !!!
