no throttle response with my old recr and txmitter
 

I broke the radio that came with the Park zone plane. So I put my rec'r to my old 8103 tranmitterin there, everything is working except the throttle is not responding. Was I wrong in thinking it could just swap over? The plane is my throw away plane, i bought it to relearn to fly, been out of the hobby since 2001.

Any help is appreciated.

thanks

Might try flipping the throttle reverse switch on the TX. Have had simular troubles where servos worked but no throttle and it worked after that...

Good Luck

That is what I would try first. On my Futaba radios I ALWAYShave to reverse the throttle. If the ESCdoes not see a zero throttle it will not arm and you will get no throttle respose.

Also move the trim switch to the full down position to be sure you are getting true zero.

Hi there from Toledo

First remove the prop for safety sake, then try the reverse idea above. Some ESCs have minimal arming protocols and may start unexpectedly and props have blades that are sharp. Be careful.
