| Futaba T2PH ?
New Guy here, I bought a futaba T2PH for a txt-1. I hooked up the servos and battery pack and receiver and nothing. I checked for voltage after the switch and it is there. when I turn it on the servos "jump" but there is nothing when i use the transmitter. Thanks |

| Esc
I am pretty sure i do not have an ESC i have a (according to tamiya) 3 step speed controller that is actuated by one of the futaba s3003 servos that came with the futaba transmitter. Did i fail to buy the correct parts?

| An ESC is an Speed controller.you bought the whole kit with the servos and speed controller and receiver?did you read the instructions?steering servo plugs into#1 and your ESC (Speed controller)plugs into#2,than you have to set your speed control.very easy to do just read you instructions.

You may wanna look into getting a better Electronic Speed Control (ESC). The mechanical one you're using could easily overload. I use to blow those things up constantly back in the day. And that was running a Tamiya King Cab with the stock motor... Good to see another AK'er on the board |
