Plugged it in.

Switched it on.

All looks ok. Servos working.

Pull brake back and press "set" on the failsafe and then the servo starts twitching gradually on to full throttle.

If I switch off the transmitter to engage the failsafe, the light comes on to say it is active but it doesn't move the servo.

Also seems to randomly do the twitching onto full throttle....don't need that when it is running!

did you switch on the hand set first???

then switch on the car.......press the button on the fail safe to reset.....make sure you have the brake applied before you reset the failsafe....

then switch of handset

when its twitching it means something is usually interfering with the failsafe.....

Good fun today!!

Especially when I had to change a wishbone on Tiny's lastest Revo Team SaLvage to the rescue You may mock us, but we come in handy

Totally buggered up the brand new paint job on my Hummer, lesson learned, do not keep the brakes on when jumping as the car cartwheels onto it's roof Have to get ABW to sort it out
