Is this a problem?? Help a Newbie
 

Hi guys

I am new to this hobby and I just got a refurb RC18MT for my son for his b day. Out of the box the RC kind of jumps. It doesn't really move but it just makes the sound like it is gonna start kind of like a off/on even though I am not giving it any juice on the radio. Like an occasional click maybe.

Could this just be interference from another signal or something?? How do I know if I need to send this back, his B-Day is one week away so I would rather not do that.

Maybe there is a test or should I reset the ESC like the book decsribes?

Thanks

Try adjusting the throttle trim.

The throttle trim. That is a knob on the Radio right?

I don't know what your radio looks like but I am just thinking of most radios. There should be two smaller knobs, one labeled throttle and one labeled steering. Adjust the throttle back till the noise stops.

you might want to charge the battery
