Faulty Sherman
Posted: Thu Nov 13, 2014 11:27 am
Well spoke to Howes Models / Hobby Power again this morning to discuss what was wrong with my Sherman.
It turns out they had provided me with a dud, the RX18 board had overheated and melted the internals, the sound board hadn't been connected and the motor had both wires soldered to the same connection.
They have replaced all parts and are in the process of shipping back to me via overnight FedEx courier.
The service from these guys has been phenomenal and thanks to this forum for pointing me in there direction.
