Re: Voltage on Frame

Inspect all the wires that directly connect to the ground stud and make sure that there is not a scratch in any of them. And yes i mean a scratch because i have seen a wire arc out of a scratch due to it being deeper then it looked. Also disconnect your backup battery and only have your main battery connected, check for the charge then. then switch the batteries, plug in the backup and dissconnect the main battery, then check for the charge. If it is present in both cases you have more of a problem then you thought due to more then one thing chassis grounding. If it is only present while the backup battery is connected, then you have a chassis ground some wheres on your RC, most likely the radio modem port. If it is present though with the main battery you prob are looking at a chassis ground from something thats connected to your ground stud. If thats your case, i would suggest to change all connectors that are on the ground stud to be insulated connectors if they arent already. I hope that this helps.
