Out of the barn ! comes Nitro_EVADER_ST !!! but it had a busted swing arm
A little R&R and good as new.
New batteries - checked all wiring to switch & receiver. Looks A-OK
The cheapo transmitter (by Futaba),,, silly saying, like my cellphone (by GeneralElectric).
New batteries, red lite = power ON - OK. Now what ?
It seems absolutely mute, wiggle every knob/switch/trigger/button/slider, zero nothin'.
Back to the servos-switch=OFF. Twist the throttle wide open, and turn wheels far left. Now switch power ON.
The throttle servo rotates to idle. The steering servo 'lurches' to center.
The car is ready, and set, waiting for GO from transmitter.
Then, I noticed the transmitter 'hole' marked X'TAL is empty. ??? A friend advised that may be for additional channels ???
Its been a few years since me, my son, and my grandson played with it. Now I remember,,,, I hit the curb, breaking the swing arm !
I questioned, but nobody can say there was ever somthing plugged it there ! The manual ? no mention of a X'TAL
But its dead.
We switched to quiet battery powered toys. cars, boats, flyers,,,, so ME & my old U-control-line planes went to the antique sale.
Any help is appreciated.
