Parkzone Spitfire Aileron servo?
Hi, I'm new to this hobby. I just put together a spitfire and it seems that the ailerons are not working I took the wing off to check to see if the servo was plugged in correctly it was but when I move the controller left to right nothing happens. Is it possibly a bad servo or am I doing something wrong. Thanks for your help.

Are you sure the aileron servo is plug into the right sopt on the receiver?
Try all available spots on the receiver. I have had some receivers mislabelled.

Have you tried another servo just being plugged into the receiver (put the elevator servo in the spot that the aileron servo goes in and try it. If it works then its the servo.
Are the servos new? Brand name?

I just tried that and the elevator servo worked. The servo is new and it's a brand name that came with the parkzone. I just bought a parts spitfire tonight on EBAY so I'll be set in no time. Thanks for your time and help.

No. Problem.
That is a little odd, I bought 5 spitfires and everything worked just fine.
The spitfire servos are a three wire servos ( which is standard ) so any micro servo that fits in the space will do. Unscrew the servos horn from the servo then use a xacto knofe to cut out the silicon that hold the servo in. ( looks like silicon anyways ) Insert your new servo and silicon it in.
Try and contact whomever you bought the spitfire from and see if they will give you a servo.
Good Luck
