Lately, I just started noticing that my Steering is acting as a On/Off switch channel.

I reset everything a couple times, but nothing.

Ughh
I have a large bash tomorrow, and this is quite pissing me off.
Sent a email to Spektrum, and calling them tomorrow morning, first thing.
Grr

You have at least one stocker? That would at least get you thorugh the bash.

Yep, but I'm gonna be bashing on the side of the roadway, at the site of a construction spot.
The "constructor" gave it the a-okay, but only on the sidewalk, where most of the dirt mounds are.

The one stocker is AM, and I don't wanna risk a glitch, and well..

Try replacing the steering servo? It is known that Spektrum systems will glitch large when it doesn't get along with certain brand servo's. Then, even when you have a servo that works for a while and then starts glitchin, I believe (don't quote me one this) the tiny "filter circuit" (capacitors usually) part of the servo circuit board gives out and allows the interference to confuse the Rx, thus going into failsafe mode, turns, then shuts down.

Did the servo or Rx get wet at all? Did it start doing this after a bad crash or out of the blue?

That's all I can come up with for now...

Cheers.
