what make of transmitter and reciever are you running?

Both flysky.

Currently looking for batteries and bind plug

[playzooki]

Changing transmitter batteries didnt work, and the transmitter powers off after 30 seconds. I think there might be something wrong with the transmitter

EDIT
Good news! Jaguar lives!
Bad news! only for a minute at a time. I may have to switch the transmitter off and back on again halfway through matches. Or win quickly. Not likely with my driving style since i usually try to get to the sides of things

EDIT 2: transmitter as a mind of it own. Have to tilt it & stuff to get it to work. I think i may need a new transmitter.

if it's the transmitter that's an issue it's not the end of the earth. although expensive brand new you can get some very decent bargains on ebay.

that's the model I use and it's never failed me so far. if your reciever has DSM2 compatability then it'll just be a case of re binding it. if not, something like this will do the job: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/AR6100E-2-4GH ... _RadioCont

ok so what happened is i asked for a chassis and the whole robot arrived :V
Problem is, I cant bind the reciever even with alex's instructions because i dont know how to solder :/

You don't need to solder to bind the RX; just poke the bind wire through the bind holes in the RX (behind the throttle channel, labled 'Bi' in tiny writing) and turn it on.

Ah, now i get it. Thanks! Is there any specific type of wire i need?

[Shakey]

No specific wire, if it conducts electricity it'll work.

ok cool, thanks!

[playzooki]

ok cool so both robots are working and i just need to get the charger bits together. since i dont have any metal or bolts for the front of The Burning Shadows of Silence, would it still be worth it to duct tape some hdpe to the front of it?

also my dad wants to bring a chess set. i dont know why he expects me to play chess with him when there are robots happening :V

[Hogi]

duck tape is always worth it! awesome looking robot by the way.
