Default Need some help on my SV27

Purchased new SV Saturday - first run was ok - second run was decent but it started to twitch - today I can not even do a range check and the motor will start running - have had some water in hull and had some in radio box - took everthing out and let it dry

I just tried a new radio FM Futuba 3PM - I have the steering servo working - it will beep once when I plug in the batts - but it will not arm after I hold in the throttle - is there anything I need to do with the Futuba radio ??

thanks for the help

Trim usually must be in the negatives for most radios.

Just tried it - I put the trim at nuetrul for throttle - when I plugged in the batts it kept beeping almost like an alarm

then I put trim in the negative and it did the same thing

As far as I know the beeping means the trim is in the wrong spot. Keep playing around with the trim. I have mine set WELL in to the negatives.

Make sure you reset it as well by unplugging batts for a few seconds

Ryan -

I think I just got it - after what you told me made me look at the servo reversing function - changed the direction of the servo and it works - but proves to me that the Aquacraft radio has something wrong with it

thanks for the quick reply and help
