Failing Spektrum receivers?

[eovnu87435ds]

or, just grab or make a rx battery, or a 2 cell lipo, plug it into a Rx that isnt in a car, turn on your radio and walk down the block with the Rx and leave the Tx at home. that should tell you for sure if it is radio interference or not. if the LED keeps goin out, then it must be the Rx's time to go

I had a problem like that in my rustler, but once I hit close to full throttle, my Rx would drop connection for a few seconds, quite often sending me into curbs and stationary objects. I moved everything about 2 inches away from the Rx and it was fine.
