Of the many things in my life I regret, I think I regret none more than purchasing a J3 trainer from Ebay. After discovering that the instructions were in Chinese, I went on to find that there was a nice little ball of silicone in the rudder servo which caused it to jam once in a while. Three jams was enough to destroy the airplane completely. Now I have this Abe Lincoln's axe thing going--I bought a new ARF kit (EasyStar) and new servos. Now I've found that this plane used a proprietary receiver with built-in servos, so I had to buy another receiver. I got the receiver today, a Cirrus 4 channel designed for the wattage Cessna/Corsair, and now I'm looking at 12 little pins and wondering which one is which.
I have an esc with three leads, a 400 motor with two wires coming from each terminal, and two three-wire servos. Can anyone tell me where the esc leads go, where the power goes in, whether I need a separate battery for the receiver (I'm using a 6cell 700MA unit)? I appreciate any help you can provide.
Thanks,
