update....

Changed the crystals... no luck... then changed the transmitter and receiver... and bingo I got a working set... I guess the crystal, receiver were fried or something... I used new battery's... So I don't think its my fault... waiting to hear back from Redcat for a credit or some type.

Car is running great got about 15 mins of run time trying to break in the engine... Then I lost my throttle spring... Replaced it the next day with a spring from a ballpoint pen!

Forgot to charge my glow plug ignitor... Oh what fun it is being a newbie
