yes, thats right. Now push the first small square button, it has a key symbol on it. The tank should start. Also make sure the tx crystal is in the tx and vise versa.

Hi slush, we are all used to using the term but tx = transmitter, rx = receiver. When you switch the power on the tank the red light flashes, when you press the key button on the transmitter then the tank should make a starting up sound, wait until the engine note is constant and then you should be able to use the tank functions - forward back on the right hand stick, turret turns left and right and elevate on the left stick.

Hi Slush, I wonder if you know that there is a specific way of starting your Tank? SWITCH ON THE TRANSMITTER (TX) FIRST, THEN SWITCH ON THE TANK, if you do it the other way round all you get is the headlights. :thumbup: shaun

Sorry slush, I made an assumption and I shouldn't have. It won't happen again.
