When your vehicle starts to lose power, it may lose functions or performance. It's time for a recharge. Your vehicle's running time may change depending on your driving style. 2. Radio interference can make your vehicle run badly. Interference can be caused by other R/C vehicles running on the same frequency; electrical wires; large buildings; or CB radios. Try to stay away from these!
