I found this thing in Toys R us last year....

Started this project this morning.
Tore it apart.
Removed circuitboard.
Resoldered new wires.
*original wires were a joke.
Dremeled out the AAA battery tray.
Bought JST connectors.(female).
Bought 1c 500mAh LiPo.

I need some help here??

The black wire that i have my screwdriver pointing at came off somewhere during the 1st disassembly and although i took pics along the way...i cannot figure out what it is nor where it goes to??

I have soldered on all new wires to this board as the ones on it were horrible. Ive plugged in the new source being a 1c 500 mAh LiPo and i have power to the circuit but no luck in movement to steering nor throttle.

My guess this wire has either something to do with juicing something up (or) a signal to get it to go??

TIA

Cool little buggy, I'd say the black wire goes next to where you're pointing as the solder pad looks to be missing a wire. Look around for solder pad with broken wire strands stuck in it.
