Big problem with my old electric Rc car (control work only near the car)
Hello everyone!!
I am new in this beautiful forum and I ask you to help me, please.
I have an electric Rc car, but it works only if I keep close the remote control (about 30 centimeters).
As soon as I walk away a little, the car doesn't work.
This car is old (is at least 5 years old).
When I decided not to use it more, had already this problem.
Now I want to use it again, but with this problem it's impossible.
(obviously the batteries are new).
Thank you for helping me and sorry for my not perfect English!!!

The first thing to check is to make sure that the antennas (check both, the receiver and transmitter) connections are good. Check for corrosion and any loose connections. If the receiver antenna is a long wire with insulation, make sure that the wire is not broken somewhere under the isulation.
