Hi guys
I have a FG Marder 1/5 scale. After just having a major melt down due to a on/off switch and a steering servo gear problem and a r162je receiver which shorted out which I have now replaced. My throttle servo is running in reverse as in when accelerating with the controller the servo is braking so u have to push the trigger forwards as if braking to go forwards, yes the linkage is on the right way Throttle servo is a tactic tsx40 and I have also tried a etronix et0012. Any one have any ideas ?
Thanks in advance

There should be a tiny switch on the transmitter ,the are to reverse the servo throw ,sometimes they are
hard to find!
