Tesla,

I have had an US aircore 40 Trainer since 1997 and do not remember if the battery is under the power block or if it somwhere else.  Can you give me any info on it.  I don't want to disassemble anything until I have a round about guess.  Plugged in the wire that includes the switch and goes to the receiver, no RX light on wall charger and no movement of servos after overnight charge.  I am sure battery is dead, so also, what battery do you use.  This is in reference to the gas engine not electric model.

Thank you very much.

Battery charger is dead or your switch is dead or your battery is unplugged.  In any case, I believe the battery is on the power pack BUT it might also be needed to balance the aircraft and be somewhere else in the model.  You need to find it, take it out and hook it directly to the wall charger and see if it will cycle up.  You also need to test it and see just how much it is capable of storing.  It could move the servos a bit and then only last enough to get you airborne, stable and then pointed in no particular direction when you lose all control forever.  I don't trust wall chargers since the last time one bit me like that.  Instead I use a field charger that has cycle testing always. 

I've got older battery packs then yours and they are in working order.  I've got younger table weights that need to go to Radio Shack for disposal too.

Once you get it back, don't forget to range check everything.  Good luck.
