Can anyone help me with this rc toy tractor?
When i switch on the power on the tractor and the controller, the led on the controller starts to blink and after a few seconds it goes out. When i push any button it starts to blink again and nothing is activated. I disconnected the dc motor, servo and leds

Hi and welcome to RCTALK.COM!!!
I have limited experience with receiver/radio combo's like yours so very first thing I'll ask (and assume at this point in your desconstruction)

Have you read the instructions that came with this kit?

I ask because my drone does the exact same thing with flashing lights but no binding... UNTIL you move the throttle full up and down. Then it binds.
Your kit may have similar.

I also found a video that explained on my radio (made in the cheaper part of China I think) the antenna wire didn't always get installed into the mast correctly.
Rerouting helped range problems.
You might find a specific vid for you model if you haven't looked.

Verify all contacts. You have it apart so how do all the solder joints look? Are they nice and shiny and smooth?

It looks like you are competent with electronics.
Diagnostics might be the next step if you've exhausted my suggestions???

Good luck!

Thanks for the reply!

I bought a Dumborc kit for €15,- on marketplace.

I'm going to install this instead.
