My Pershing is still in the same state as it was around a year ago. It's not responding whenever I press on the startup command.

I got myself a new board (upgraded from rx-13 to rx-14) and It still doesn't work.

So now I have these questions, I hope I get some really useful tips because I can't really buy anything on my own (I'm 17 and I don't have a job or a bank account), plus being in the Philippine archipelago is kind of a downside because we need to have some special contact with someone to sell us tank parts or have the parts shipped from overseas (my dad can't really spend much because there was a problem with his documents (there were missing files because of the infamous flood that hit us last time) for his green card so my dad has to pay a lawyer to help him get it back, since he still hasn't gotten his green card yet, he still can't apply for a solid job in Cali).


the light flashes but it does not respond,

do receiver boards get fried too?


I checked the soldering, all seems fine

should I re-solder it all? (I might bust something)


I got a fully charged battery in the tank and new batteries in the controller

could this also be caused by the lack of power getting to some part of the boards on both the tank and controller?


I checked all the other stuff, The motors work fine, the speaker is untouched, power gets to the board(the lights flash), and I preserved the turret as it was

Am I cursed? to have every single RC toy I touch break down? (maybe I should stop tinkering with them.. LOL)



I'm open to all ideas, thanks for the help - dietrich
