thanks

I presume I,ll have to buy a new Cap now ?
Don't quote me on this but I think it's to do with the power draw on servo. I've heard of them doing it if you turn car off with battery still plugged in and move the wheels/servo by hand. Like it sends power into the esc or something.

Some people put 2 capacitors on, I think thats what I'd do if this happened.
