| dx3e issue's
I bought a used dx3e from a member for my wife to use on her scaler. It has castle sidewinder Castle BEC 7955 hitec servo. First few days everything worked fine, but now for some reason when you plug in the battery the truck takes off forward full speed even with the radio on. I tried to rebind, that goes ok but it won't let me recalibrate the esc. Now if I plug the esc into channel one all is good. I can perfectly control the throttle from the steering wheel and if I plug the steering servo into channel 2 it turns full left and stays there no matter what I do with the radio. All trims are zero. I also tried the tx/rx on another rig with the same results. Is this a common issue with these radios or does anyone have any ideas? |

Either the TX has an issue on the throttle trigger, or the RX had a dead channel 2. Are the TX batteries good? Did you try a different battery pack in the rig? |

| Re: dx3e issue's Yes, I replaced the radio batteries with new ones and tried 4 or 5 different lipos in the both trucks.

I don't have any other spectrum stuff anymore, I switched out to futaba on all my rigs. No, all the trims are set at zero

[QUOTE=Charlie-III;4411048]Either the TX has an issue on the throttle trigger, or the RX had a dead channel 2. I am narrowed down to this as well. |
