a good morning all I recently just got a taigen tiger 1 tank got it out of the box used it as The Hobby Shop recommended till the battery died shut everything down charged the battery went to reuse the tank and now it's not acting like it's not bound to the controller I tried putting the fresh battery in the tank again fresh batteries in the controllers and can't seem to get them to bind together can someone please help

I found that but it is the wrong controller . Mine has a push button to the right of the toggle for the machine gun. That toggle is for the factory smoke . If I push and hold the machine gun button it will enter bind but after about ten seconds it goes out on it's own. I have tried engaging the bind and flicking the tank on which is under the rh Gunner hatch on mine.

If you have the push button type then check your instructions. The push button is held down instead of the toggle switch, that will put it in bind mode. The MG was moved from the toggle switch to a press button on the V2 transmitters but the bind sequence is still the same, press the button/toggle for the MG and turn on the transmitter. You should see the TX blink fast just like the video showed Let me know if that helps! I'm pretty sure I saw an email from you too asking the same thing, I'm getting ready to answer emails right now (I'm on break picking up a work truck atm) so expect the same response in email if you were the one that sent it Please let me know if you got any other questions!

Yes Eric I emailed taigen over the weekend too . I will post a video in a couple days because I am sure I'm doing something wrong .

take out the space I can't direct post yet

yup so finally getting a chance to try this again and with the fresh charge on the factory battery nothing seems to work. :-(

Make sure your charger is actually charging the battery. Measure the voltage on the battery and confirm it is at least 7.5V or so (the tank will not bind on a low battery for safety reasons). Also make sure you do not have rechargeable batteries in the transmitter. Finally make sure you are turning the tank and transmitter on at the same time. There is only a 2-3 second bind window time the tank is looking for. Sometimes it is best to ask a friend/family member if you are unable to do this action that quickly (I know the bind button on the TX and then hitting the tank switch can be tricky). These are the top 3 issues that prevent a bind. Hopefully this helps!

taking it to a local hobby shop today. :-( .nothing seems to be working
