Senton Senton 3s problems

[GreysonW]

My senton is only a couple of weeks old and its already having problems it runs fine for a few minutes and then it has no throttle response and the servo gets locked in whatever direction it was set in once I cut it off and turn it back on it works for a few more minutes and then the problem repeats itself I've tried resetting the ESC but the problem still persists

Sounds like a radio issue. Do you have any others to try?

This!
Did your Senton come with the Spektrum radio?
It's a known fact that it's pretty much garbage.
There are a lot of good budget radios out there that work a lot better than the STX2.

It did come with the spectrum STX2. I just ordered a new transmitter and receiver once it arrives ill try it and see if that fixes it. Thanks for the help everyone.

I think your servo is shorting out try unpluging the servo and see if the thottle works
When it doesn't want to move anymore unplug the servo if it starts to work then its the servo
If when you remove the servo and switch remote then fellow a warranty claim to horizonhobby they will do things right
