Best thing I've found with radio stuff is to swap out components until the problem stops.

When the problem stops you've found the culprit!

Okay guys, cheers for your help last night - basically i connect a friends JR Digital Servo and its all SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET

I test both Normal Mode & High Mode and no GLITCH like before witht he Metal Gear Analogue Servo S3305 & S3010 - both these servos do not like my radio receiver or combination of one digital and one analogue.


So after doing many test it come down to using 2 x Digital Servos!


Now the fun part is to return my product and buy a better servo!

BTW - here is basically almost the FINISHED product - taken a few weeks to build but its time to start it up tomorrow and get some tanks through the OS TZ .12 P3...

Just borrowing a JR Digital Servo till my new one arrives - enjoy the pics guys!

Cheers Again
Frankie

I need a little help. My shift point changes once the car comes up to operating temp. It always shifts way too early. During warm-up the car shifts slight late but after 3-4 minutes the car shifts way too early. Do I need to adjust it when the car is hot? What parts my be worn? During my main; I basically ran the entire race in second gear. (It did not get stuck)

I also order some mrx4 and mtx4 parts from pro shop futaba. Friendly and quick response.

Fill in the sales order with part number, quantity and parts description, but leave blank the price. Put that as attachement and email it to pro shop futaba.
