Hmmmm....were you even ready to fly this. Everything - EVERYTHING should have been checked - triple checked and tested prior to trying to fly it.

I just got ripped off too , reading this thread and thinking it would have some real info and perhaps I could help . But when you dont provide a buyer , a plane , and real details , servo info , CSI report on what led you to think it was the servos ect , you really cant get or really dont want help
Case close

I'm still trying to figure out if this is a serious thread or just go ahead and pee my pants in hysteria?! If your serious, then I might as well wet my pants from laughing so freakin hard. Preflight and double check everything.

A responsible pilot should know how to fully check out every aspect of the plane that he " baught ". Including the servos. Your fault; not his.

Probably the first time he ever tried to fly. Servos could have been reversed. Rookie mistake.

Maybe the crash made the bad servo, not the other way around.

That's usually the way that it works. Things go really bad in a hurry when they smack into the ground.

My first plane was a rip off. Didn't matter WHICH way I pointed the antenna the plane would NOT go that direction.I found out after I picked it up from the pile of bricks I crashed into that the wings, engine, fuselage, landing gear,ANDservos were ALL faulty as they didn't work anymore. Buyer BEWARE.
