hi there can you still hear the motor running when you pull the left stick down it may well be that the small plastic clip on the back of the bb unit has snap off if so you will need to rplace the bb unit thanks dave

OK Dave...I managed to sort it...The motor had gone so I removed one from a snow leopard and took the motor out of it..just need to work out why it freezes once in a while..but if I turn the remote off and then back on again its usualy fine for a few mins..

thats great it could be the transmitter if you have a spare one change the crystal and see if it works with another transmitter

Given that a try...I will try it again in the morning once the circuit cleaners had chance to do its work as the soldering in Heng long Tanks leaves a lot to be desired to say the least LOL
