Heng Long Panther G main gun problem – not controllable

Post by nivek_64 »

Heng Long Panther G main gun problem – not controllable – the turret rotation causes the main gun to move both up and down continuously. The main gun will not work via the radio handset. All other functions work as expected. The BB function works.
I have another radio handset and have tried that to no effect. Any ideas welcomed as I’m new to this.

Good Morning.
That sounds as if something is plugged into the wrong place on the RX-18 board. More knowledgeable fellows here will know and be able to assist better than I.
regards and good luck,
