Good...Forgebear should handle it pretty fast...does sound like something happened to your RX....did you try it in another tank?

It rather does. Hoping that will be the fix, then I can start sorting out the track slippage.
I am not fortunate enough to have a second tank, and I dont know anyone locally that has one!
Unless anyone is located near Wetherby, West Yorks?

Well...I would say don't toss it out....because you never know...I guess that's one benefit of having a second tank or a test board...as it is probably the fastest and easiest trouble shooting task you can do
Good Luck

Hey guys, thanks for the help...
Well the board arrived from Forgebear, I plugged it in, and...
Nothing
Until I pushed in the TX 'On' button as suggested by Wibblywobbly! - It appears to be all working now!
Now to install the Taigen lower hull, metal late wheels, mudflaps, and replace the idlers and sprockets!
Thank you all, I will be resurrecting my 2.5 year old First Tiger thread!

Bit late into this, but the crystals always seem to need removing & refitting to ensure a first time run up on all of mine.
The on'/offs are also a bit baggy, but its been the tank crystals for me that seem to be the root cause of deadtank syndrome.
