DOOOOOOH!!!!

I too have found a faulty wire. I did have one servo go out on me though. I will have to investigate this further to see it the Spektrum rx's I switched out are good or not.

Default Hey Rob

Rob,
Go to Radio Shack and get some solder braid to make your batts with. If you clean all your cells and use shoe goo, you will have a pack that is semi flexible when the punishment starts. The braid will do the job without fail.
The Traxxas guys had this problem and they ended up getting their batts fixed as well.
No more problems for them.

2 Channel operation and 2 model memory on the DX2, 3 Channel and 3 model memory on the DX3. Plus there's a special right now where if if buy a DX3 you get a free extra receiver. Here's the link:

Well, you can store profiles for 2 different vehicles if that's what you meant. And you can control 2 items from a receiver, either an ESC and a servo or a throttle and steering servo.

The slot for the binding plug should have power to it. I believe I have my transponder plugged into mine.

Try turning the plug around. You may have it plugged in backward.

I've been doing it for 15 years and I had mine backward Everyone can make rookie mistakes. If not, I'd get a hold of Horizon to get them fixed because they're definitely supposed to have power.
