Default Neutral Creep on GTB

Just wondered if anyone has had a problem with the neutral point moving on the GTB?
I keep having to bring the trim back on my transmitter after a couple of minutes of the car being run. To be honest I'm not sure if it's the transmitter or the GTB.
Just wondered if anyone else has suffered a similar problem - and whether there was a cure?
Cheers

Sounds like your tranny throttle trim is dodgy, or something. I would set the throttle sub-trim to neutral, then the fine trim also to neutral.

Also then reset the GTB (hold the one-touch button while switching the GTB on, then wait for the solid red light, then hit full throttle on the transmitter, then green light, full brakes, then flashing green and return to neutral on the transmitter). It should then have the red, yellow and blue lights on I think, once it has finished setting up.

HTH

The transmitter I'm using at the moment is a HiTech Pro Car with a spectrum module, and a spectrum micro reciever.
Basically just wondered if this was something that happens with the GTB or whether it's more likely to be the radio? Baring in mind I've had the pro car for 4 years.

If you have set the dead band to minimum, it will make the car creep forward on neutral. Basically, the minimum dead band setting gets rid of neutral.

If you are running factory settings, then im wrong, and if thats the case I think it is more likely to be your tranny.... try and borrow a tranny from a friend and set the end points to it, see if it still does it.
