RF probs with Heng Long battling Tigers
I bought a set of those Heng Long battling Tigers - approx 30/1 scale - and for a while they worked fine, but now one has developed an RF prob. It works fine when the hand set is in immediate proximity but fails when it is moved away.
I opened up the model and re-soldered the connexion of the wire to the base of the aerial but this has not solved the prob. I may do this again to make sure that the joint is not dry (I am a bit out of practice with a soldering iron.)
Does anyone have any ideas?

RE: RF probs with Heng Long battling Tigers
Good thinking, but yes I have.
The solder connection at the base of the aerial on the handset might be dodgy, but it is a tad close to the electronics and I wish to be sure that is the prob before I start heating it up!
Thanks
