yes, what radio and receiver is it that you are having problems with - Dang, it sure was hard not to give a 'here's you sign' sarcastic response! :D If you tell us what specifically you are having a problem with - i.e. I have radio x and receiver y and nothing is happening, or major glitching, etc. it will be easier to help.

Please add what truck you have also as then we will be able to tell what radio it by knowing what usually comes with what truck and words and more words and stuff....

If your talking about the losi lst you have listed in your garage then hold down scroll and channel while turning on your radio and once it comes on hit scroll once and that is the transmitter channel. afterwards make sure that the two dials on top of your reciever in your radio box in the front of your truck say what is on the transmitter, left being the first digit and right being the second...

RE: help!!!
 
nope i took it out of the box oiled the air filter and put batteries in teh car and teh radio, put feul in it and got the car running(in idle of course) and tried out the radio while it was ildeing on a stack of bricks and it never worked. i tried like checking the batteries. switched the batteries. then while it was off i brought it inside and tinkered with it like checking the crystals and making sure the batteries were good andit never worked!

N3W2R/C 01-13-2006 07:38 PM

RE: help!!!
 
yes it is a stock radio and reciever, i just pulled it out of the box right after i got home from school

N3W2R/C 01-13-2006 07:42 PM

RE: help!!!
 
the servo's are activating when i turn them on like they twitch but that is all they do

BigBoyBadToy 01-13-2006 07:43 PM

RE: help!!!
 
is the battery pack in the truck plugged into the power switch and likewise the powerswitch plugged into the reciever and in the right direction? usually all the wires go in the same pin on each plug in the reciever power and servos I mean. Try turning the switch on the truck on and off a few times to see if the throttle or steering jumps a little bit, they should, then turn the transmitter on and off a few times to see if anything happens

You might try pulling the crystals out and re-installing them too.

N3W2R/C 01-13-2006 07:46 PM

RE: help!!!
 
i made sure the battery pack is plugged in right, i made sure the pins lined up and stuff on teh reciever and on the connection between the reciever and the battery pack
