Default RE: rx crystal replace


ORIGINAL: awesome crasher

have just replaced the crystal in my rx (jr 459x) because the original was I think damaged (had a part broken off) and i wasn't getting any movement with my transmitter. i noticed that when i initially charged the rx & tx batteries that the rx battery light on the charger goes out but no matter how long i leave the transmitter charging the light does not go out. Could this be a battery problem? (jr xp652 radio with 9.6v 600mha tx battery & 4.8v 600mha rx battery)
rx battery connected directly to rx
So... you disconnect your battery from the Rx to charge it, plugging it directly into the charger? And the light goes out? Yes, that would describe a battery problem, or a problem with the battery lead.

Why would you plug the Rx battery directly to the receiver? If you forget to disconnect, the battery will be drained and probably not recover.

Good luck,
Dave Olson
