    Actually the failsafe is for loss of radio signal. Such as out of range etc. It shuts down the throttle so you don't experience a "run away"

    right, but by cutting the power to the transmitter in the even of a roll over, you are essentially manually cutting the signal. Which cuts the throttle, so there's no chance of it pulsing or running, like he (and my brother in law) experienced with the stock radio.

    What ESC did you get? Did you program the esc per the manual? Is it plugged into channel 2 of your receiver?

    Before plugging it the batteries, Hold the throttle on the transmitter to full. While doing that, connect the batteries.
