Temporary loss of electric powerI changed the servo and motor
What is a brown out?
Didn't realize the BLX185's bec was that weak. 3A must be nominal or something as I don't hear my fans dip hardly at all when I steer my outcast with the 1210sg in it. In my ERBE, I don't even have to put the tires on the ground to hear the fans dip and the receiver to reboot. I just have to steer back and forth a couple times fairly quickly and it happens.What servo did you switch to? So this is a stock blx185 sending power to rx, and rx distributing power to servo? Just trying to troubleshoot. As an example of what could be happening - the blx185 has a 3A bec, a savox 1210sg servo can in theory at stall current draw 6A.
Check out hitec's site. Stall current on the 7954sh is 3A. Stall current on the 1210sg is 6A@6v, [email protected]. Between that, the fans and the receiver... could be hitting the upper limit of the MMX. It's not known for the best BEC. It has an 8A peak. Which would suggest pushing it much past 5-6A is straining it.Sorry I should of put my setup earlier I have the momba monster x esc, I had a hitec which died and a 1515 2200kv motor which also had to much play so I sent it back to castle. In the mean time I put in my savox 1210sg and a back up blx 2050kv motor and that’s when all this started to happen. On the radio the signal starts to drop at about 10 feet no bars left and at about 30’ it’s lost complete signal and the radio flashes tm off.
When I walk to get signal back the esc starts beeping and when I check the what the beeps mean it says radio glitch, the esc detected unusual signals or loss of signal on the throttle wire
Wow I would of never guessed that thank you I will try it. I killed my self trying to fit that savox inCheck out hitec's site. Stall current on the 7954sh is 3A.

Funny how hitec can hit the same numbers (bit faster, little less torque) with half the power consumption... Guess that's where the extra $18 the hitec costs comes into play.
Might be worth finding a much lower drain servo laying around, plug it in, then just test the range to see if you still get a response. I know I keep a box of servos I won't ever use in anything just for testing purposes... (looking at you traxxas 2075's pos servos!).
