Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone has any pics of their HL control and receiver board? I began to re-wire some parts of the board and forgot where one wire goes. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks

No. But it goes to the power switch. Their are 3 wires that go to the power switch the + wire goes to the middle terminal the - to the on position and the other to the off position.

Thanks for your help Kill. Can you be more specific with the wires in your last post. I don't know what is going on but everything turns on and seems to be working fine without my yellow receiver wire attached to anything?? But when I apply the reverse throttle only one track goes?? I've posted some pics. If you need to see something else tell me and I will post it.

The receiver board in my tiger doesnt have that wire on it. The only wires connected to the receiver board are the three with the white connector block and the antenna wire.

I real do not know what the wire coming off the transmitter board and going to the power switch dose. Be best guess I have is it is some kind of reset. When the tank is turned on power is removed from it and when the switch is turned on it has power on it. sorry that I can not be more help at this time.

Thanks for your help guys. Hopefully some one else may shed some light on this latter on. For now I'm going to move on to other areas of the Pershing.

Is it possible to fix one of the boards instead of waiting for the parts to come from canada? If it was a simple replace something for a burnt out parts. I've got one track that I burnt up the part- smelled in but it was to late. If there is something that hopefully Radio shack might carry I could solder a new one in it's place- Pershing.

it's cheaper to buy it from Mato or direct from the factory.

yes mato got expensive shipping fees even for a Canadian)
my board at mato cost me 16.00$ can.(april2006).
with the shipping ended 31.00$ ,
that`s 15$ for shipping when the real shipping cost is more like 7.00$[&o].
i suggest buying the replacement board(15$) and tank at nova hobby ebay store,cheaper shipping fees and price:

my tiger was purchased from him(also faster shipping then mato).

Let me ask you joec07, are the front and rear lights in series or parallel. I hooked up my front lights each + to+ and - to -. Only one light works now?? I will post a pic soon

I don't think you can hook up LEDs of different colors together, can you?
As for the extra wire on the RC board to the switch. One fella told me it was used to discharge the board or something like that, he told me on the MTG forum.

Hi
why not..... all you have to do is add a ressistor to the positve lead if you use one color LED or the 3rd wire is for the psoitf lead of the other color inside the bulb
