I found I had to "write" the default button options on the A tank program, but I do not think this is the problem. I don't know if the is a electrical or transmitter problem or a mechanical one (I had no movement at all until I found there was a missing pin in one of holes of thegearbox shaft with two holes in the gear box and put the missing pin in, there are now three pins in the gear box shafts holes which appears correct.). Any suggestions as to cause/fix of the problem would be appreciated.
Thank You in advance.
BTY: The Pershing is running great using a Futaba T4YF with the joystick mod and function buttons I added (gun, mg, lights, clutch) following instructions on this forum (I do not remember the post, but thank whoever posted the instructions.)
A simple process of elimination step I would try is to reverse the turning motors wires (red to black, black to red kind of thing) If there is a problem with the electronics it should cause the problem to now be on the opposite side. If it is a motor or gearbox problem then this to should present itself as well.
