Futaba 3PL wih R2004GF receiver

[Lentsnh2012]

Is anyone else having problem with the transmitter and receiver linking together?

My Wraith has just started to get these weird occurances where it just wont link or will go in and out.


Symptoms:
No power to BEC but the AE-2 ESC is beeping away
No power or signal to the R2004GF receiver
If it goes out, I could firmly tap the "hood" and it would come bck on until I ht another hard bump.
I've tried everything... ESC is still good and so is BEC. I'm starting to think I have a bad receiver...


Please help and tell me what you guys think!

None of those problems here. A couple of times I lost the throttle when I stopped then went to take off again. I just went back and forth with the trigger a few times, while muttering to myself, and it just took off and was fine. However, I have only logged about 4 hours on this unit. I'm in the process of moving everything to my wraith so then it will get a work out.

Thanks for the reply!

I found out the problem!!! There was a loose solder on the receiver end of the CC BEC. I soldered on a new BEC and all was great again!


Now I just have to fix my broken axle shaft haha.
