My problem seemed like the batteries voltage was dropping so far it reset the rx (i could see the rx light go off and watch it reset), but i tried all kinds of high powered lipos and stuff too, the a123 were just the standard setup, and it happened with the motor not connected to anything as well - not even a pinion on it, I'm pretty sure A123 cells are up to spinning an unloaded motor without dropping below 1V/cell lol... I can't figure out what it is, and havent to this day. I've used the exact same setup in other cars without problem, it is really really baffling. Like I know there is something I'm not thinking of, and its really frustrating lol.. oh well.
