Default RE: Major Problems

It's been a great day today........

With all the problems I've had getting this thing to run, I was aprehensive taking it out and get some time on the new engine.

Just wanted to let ya'l know I had no problems with it. The glitching is gone and I can start it up with the radio off as well as on. Changing out the RX solved the problem. Now I just have to send out the other RX to Horizon for the replacement.

I didn't have time to get some sheilded cable fot the igniter cord, instead, I split the wires (2-conductor, lamp cord style) and twisted them together with each other. No more buzz. It's a little trick I learned from racing electric touring cars. Twist the wires from the battery to cancel out any emf/rf or whatever you want to call it, to prevent glitches. I figured if it worked for that, I'd try it on the igniter clip. Seems to have worked.

Was able to run two more tanks for break-in on the new .18 with full throttle control.[8D]
