Default Damn @#$! Radio piece of crap!

I am in the process of making my first nitro MT and am up to the lovely stage where I install the radio. My problem is that when I test the servos and receiver nothing happens. I know that all components work because I have tried them out on one of my electric cars. I do get one servo workin however when I plug the battery into a servo port, instead of battery port. The receiver does have BEC and I am suspecting this may have something to do with it (though i dont see how). I have tried to connect the battery in every position in the battery port, yet still nothing happens. Is anybody familiar with this and do they know the remedy?



thanks if you help me

Sounds like the connections in the battery slot are faulty.

You might try lifting the metal pieces on the side of the plug with a small screwdriver. I had the same problem with my steering servo in my XX-4 until I did this.
