Yes it true! The Corporal lives!

I am really happy w/ the Claw's performance. It was nice to be able to crawl w/ a group of Supers again.

The radio/receiver issue will be fixed and our next CMRCRC comp is in mid November. Can't wait!

Hopefully I can get Unholy to bring the Scythe (Stick type chassis) and crawl w/ me before the comp.

I still think the "radio issue" is the loose nut on the radio....

Loose nut or not, I have to replace one or the other. It sucked when I lost rear steer, and when the front went away as well, I was really bummed!:-(

I still have a hard time believing it was radio/receiver related. It looked more ESC ( BEC more specifically) or servo related.

I don't know?

Both servos seem to work fine, new TR2 5A 6V so it has me puzzled???

I'm going to start changing components until I figure out which one it is!

How many cells were you running?

The same thing happened to me with a TR2, 2 645MG's, and a 8 cell pack.:-( It overloaded the BEC, but Tekin repaired it for free.

I would suggest pulling components out of your other rigs to check the stuff before ordering new.

I'm running 8 cells! Never had an issue w/ my last TR2 w/ 8 cells, if it is the TR2, I'll repair it and sell that POS!

I wasn't running a reciever pack or anything, but mine overloaded on me within 5 or so minutes. It lost steering and then it just wouldn't do anything.


I have a SR for backup, but I haven't had to use it yet. I have been sticking to 6 or 7 cells lately too though.

Well it is the receiver. Channel 1 is not working.

Everything else seems to be working fine.

So off to the bay I go!

If you can pick one up cheap from the bay... go for it.
If not... I will set you up with another tq3 and receiver.
