Default I dony believe it!

Sold my Axial crawler the other day with no TX, but included a 2ch Traxxas unit f.o.c. so the buyer could get things up and running, I did include a 4ch RX though.

Now Im getting earache demanding a refund as the crawlers 'broken' when even I can work out the guys not doing something with his radio.

Motor is a split new 55t Novak, no problems there and a quick dab of a 7.2v pack would show thats fine....Yes?

Steering servo is a decent BB job with more than enough power and could be checked with any old 2ch tranny.....yes?

DIG unit needs a channel of its own, but could be checked by disconnecting the arm and working it manually, the servo again with the old 2ch....Yes?

ESC is solid sate with usual chirps etc on setup, a chirping noise says its not getting a signal, meaning a problem with a radio.....yes?

So theres a working crawler with no radio signal as far as I can see, am I missing something?

This is like flogging a piano and when it arrives, theres a complaint they cant play the piano.....

I have no idea on anything you've said...

What is he saying doesn't work?

Get skype and deal with him direct, in real time, with the vehicle in front of you.

Maybe would have been a good idea to set it up then before sending it?

The crawler worked fine last time used Mark, but the TX I used then got sold with a boat, I used that TX in most things as I knew where everything was.

I threw in 3ch freebie that was tested previously, but there was ye olde am/fm crystals drama. Now the fellas saying he cant work anything, strange as he would have to use his own radio gear that I have no control over.

Im just asking in case Im missing something glaringly obvious as we can all do from time to time.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx x

Banging my head against a brick wall there I think, Im just going to refund him to save the stress.

S'a funny ol game innit?
