Hi all muzzle flash seems to work when it wants
any ideas??
batteries ok checked for volts and amps
other tanks working fine
cheers

i would have a look for bad connections1st.

I found a few in mine .i.e. solider joins that look good untill you give it a bit of a pull..then off the wire comes..

Wires that have been rubbed and the outer covering split.

It may help before you go stripping it out.

ok will give your ideas a try
cheers

Might be the RX18 board.

I have one tank with the flash unit in and working but turret doesn't turn. Swapped in another RX18 to check turret motor and wiring worked and everything worked but the flash.

So I have one where flash works but turret does turn and one where everything works except the flash unit (can hear it charge up).

Thanks all its now working
