Futaba 10C 2.4Ghz HELP!!!!!

Paul Wills · Post by **Paul Wills** » Wed Mar 11, 2009 9:30 pm

Hi All,

I have invested in a new Futaba 10C 2.4Ghz, after a lot of reading up and help from my mate Richie, I have finally got it up and running in the halftrack. However, it seams to have a glitch that we canâ€™t work out, noting else is affected only the throttle. When the model is switched on the tracks start to spin, and if I push the throttle stick forward and back, then to centre, it will stop, however, after a few minutes it will start spinning again. I have checked the servo actions on the panel and it shows nothing has been activated. Can any one offer some help??

Paul

Hi Paul.
In my opinion you need to go and relax with a "Golf ball washer" and i think all your problems will soon vanish!

Hi paul
my best guess is the battery is low and the failsafe is kicking in, try charging the transmitter battery or alter the failsafe parameters. i had a similar problem once and that was the cause.
cheers.

That was a problem whereby the transmitter lost its unique serial code and could end up controlling more than one receiver. I don't believe the 10C ever suffered from this.

I had a similar problem with the 6EX. See Panzer IV section and "Main on off kill switch" and in particular Marks reply. Since resetting the transmitter failsafe I have had no problem.

And keeping the receiver battery charged.

Hi Guys,

It was the failsafe, or rather I should say that has solved the problem. I use Raptor 30 NiMH 4.8v 4300mAh Battery Packs, I find they never seem to run down, as long as you charge them after every outing. I also have a battery watcher, so no chance of them going flat without me knowing.

Thanks for your help on this guys. Iâ€™m off now to watch next doors wife clean the rest of those golf balls!!!!!

Richie, if you haven't seen it yet, it probably means the Wee Scotty has got to it first!

If that is the case, "Lisa, Riche made me send it to him".
