A couple of thoughts, how tight are your tracks? you need some free play but then again not to much and too tight is a certain no no. the other thought is can you see if any of the track pins are sticking out and catching as the tracks turn? I assume both tracks are aligned and running straight looking front to rear. shaun

rx in the receiver old chap ,tx in the transmitter make sure they are seated properly, no1 crystals are the norm so see if you can get some higher numbered ones 5/6/7/8/? your track judder may be clutch slip that makes a horrible noise ? or you may have your tracks to tight ?
alpha is in the driving seat with nylon gears look at some of his threads ?wot wot .....
