HELP! Axial Wraith turns on but will not move or stear..

[trob1991]

Hello Guys,

I'm new to the site and I am having a problem with my Axial Wraith. I bought it brand new about 2 months ago and it is powered by an ONYX 4200mAh NiMH Battery, until now I haven't have any problems with it. It ran great hands down! I decided to put it back in the box instead of letting it sit around. Today I took it out to play with it and it wouldn't move or steer....

SO.. I charged the battery, and tried to turn it on and use it. But it would not move and I noticed that the steering would not budge by controller or trying to move it by hand. So I figured it needed to be reset or w.e.

So I read up on how to reset the axial wraith to the controller and held the gas forward till it turned green and beeped, and reverse until it beeped. But this did not work and it still will not move or steer. But I noticed the green light was flashing..

I do not know what to do, the instructions aren't the most specific ones that I've seen in my day, so I don't know what else to do besides ask advice... anything would help bc it's practically brand new so I can't imagine anything being wrong with it mechanically... help me please!

If there is no steering, it's most likely:

1-TX needs to be bound to the RX
2-Bad battery

If the steering does not move by hand when the vehicle is off, the servo may be bad and loading down the ESC keeping it from working right.

Unplug the steering servo from the Rx and see if the throttle works.
A new servo may be in order and while your at it an external BEC would be a good idea.
