Flysky receiver question

[cartronicshn]

Hey i need some help , i already oredered a few more replacement receivers, but it takes 2-3 week for me get them, and this was my last spare.
Anyways, i was hooking up this 3ch receiver to my e maxx, and i have power, steering works and ch3 works fine also, now ch2 throtle only has power but no signal, i already swapped ch and they all work except the ch2 port, i know it's not toast, but is it possible that the solder on the ch2 port/board is not making contact? any suggestions?

not one single suggestion, oh well, i am going ahead, and try to resolder the ch2 poles on the board and see if that helps, if not, i am going to remap ch3 to work as throttle and use this receiver on an on road car.

I have a receiver that is acting the same way. I think it's a manufacturing issue from Flysky. I thought I pooched it by plasti-diping it. I never checked to see if it worked before. Not much help, but you're not alone at least.

what model of FS RX ? GT3E ?

I had problems with mine...
likely damaged due to the 7.4v voltage I run.
It did not get wet and didn't smell burnt either.

I opted instead to purchase the newly designed FS GT3F RX.
which is claimed to handle up to 8v

I saw a youtube video that claims there is an issue
with the antenna wire fracturing and causing poor reception/control.
and describes how that signal can be restored by repairing the antenna wire.

I didn't bother attempting that with my GT3E
and instead purchased two FS GT3F RX's

Here's my related thread
