I need a little help........

[half_pint]

Ok, so I have a losi LST with a JR XS3 Transmitter, well.... my 7 month old got a hold of my transmitter, and pressed and played with about every possible setting she could.

The truck is a second hand truck, in really really good condition, ( I only had a chance to drive it once after my husband "checked it out") anyways now if I turn the truck on it fine, as long as the transmitter is not on, but if I turn the transmitter and the truck on, the servos completely freak out, and make EVERYTHING twitch.

I don't have any clue what any of the settings on the transmitter were, or how to fix them, I'm extremely new to R/C and my husband is realitivly new, so we are both at a loss. I'm really hoping its the transmitter and not all of the servos.....................

Any Ideas???

Go to rcdocuments.com and download the manual for that transmitter. It covers all the settings so you should then be easily able to get things working again.

here's the part where the girl comes out...... i did that and i don't understand where everything should be set to... can i set it back to the default settings?

It's been a while since I messed with a JR radio, you could take the batteries out and leave them out a while,that may get the defaults settings if there are any.

First thing to check is to see if the channel number matches the receiver.

That should get you close provided the truck is stock electronics wise, and depending what the previous owner did. Check that the Transmitter crystal is not broken and is plugged in firmly. If your little girl dropped the radio, that could be an issue. Radio shack has crystals that will work in it for cheap. Take the TX in with you for comparison.

Thanks for the advice... yet again

XS3 has no crystals - it set in the computer.

Also there can be 6 models stored,try switching though them and see if one still works.
