I have a Taigen 1/16 Tiger 1 (V2) . It came with the Taigen T5 controller 2.4GHz. I recently got it out of storage and found that the controller no longer works. I'm not electronicically skilled, but, with a multimeter was able to establish that power is reaching the board. I think it must be a problem with the switch itself, fixing that is beyond my ability.
Can I get a new one? Where from? How much? Will I have to bind it to the tank? If so how? The original instructions omitted the binding method as it was done at the factory and I don't know how to do it.
Any suggestions would be great.

Re: Broken Taigen controller
I have contacted Dave at Forgebear and bought a Taigen V3 upgrade which includes a new controller. I'm all sorted now. Thanks.

Re: Broken Taigen controller
If you bought the Taigen V3 with the sound module, you get much, much, much better sound for your Tiger. It's easy to install; even a fumble-fingered, scaredy cat can do it: I do it frequently.

I did. I'm looking forward to receiving it, depending on the post office strike. Thanks.
