Son crashed my truck!

[cuffs50]

So my son crashed my redcat volcano epx pro full speed into a concrete pad which brought it to a dead stop. It had been acting funny since the second time I drove it. It would kind of jolt forward a few feet at a time then take off. After the crash there is absolutely no forward or reverse. My dad bought the same truck and his has the same kind of behavior (jolting). What could I possibly replace to fix the problem (and don't say the whole truck lol). I know they are "cheap" rc's but I didn't want to invest a lot if my son didn't like it. Thanks for any help.

1 redcat sort of sucks 2 the way to fix it is to not buy a nother redcat buy a traxxas or maby losi but not redcat

sounds to me like an esc issue. You could try to upgrade if your budget will allow it, also look into your esc or remote settings. Might be a trimming or setting issue

Redcat sent me a brand new esc which I installed and that didn't solve it. The steering servo still works and responds to the transmitter properly but I get nothing from the motor. No throttle response at all.

motor couldl be fryed/burnt out

Yeah honestly I think that's the only thing left it could be. What are the chances that one of the channels on the receiver go out?
