Rover connection bug

[greenrat]

Sooo, I am running 1.3 and have been playing ksp for quite a while. And when i wanted to  test drive my rover the connection is completely fine in the beginning, but as soon as i start driving I lose connection and when I lose the wheels stop spinning. A fraction of a second later i regain connection because im not using the wheels and this ends up with the connection display flickering and my top speed being about 2 m/s

This might be a bug. But how do I get past it? I even added like 5 antennas and it didnt change. 

Note: I am on kerbin, simply testing it on the runway.

Hello, and welcome to the forums! 

Any chance that you're just running out of electricity?  Rover wheels use a lot of juice.  Perhaps you're using up your electricity, which then loses connection, but then you get some electricity back when the motors stop running and your solar panels start to provide some power, and so forth.
