Frequency question
 
I just received a Redcat Tornado, and was testing out the servos/controller before I do a break-in. I do not get any response from the car when I move the steering wheel or throttle. I have all 3 lights (red/yellow/green) on the transmitter, so I know that I have power at the transmitter. On the car, it has 4 brand new AAs in it, and the servos twitch a hair when I turn the car on. Now, I did notice that my transmitter has a T-10 on the crystal and it says 27.195 and the receiver in the car shows R-6 and has 27.095. Is this difference in frequencies causing the problem? I'm hoping that this was just a mix-up from the factory and that it's not something wrong with the electrical system.

Yep that would be your problem. If you had another set to swap them it would work or just go buy a set instead of waiting on shipping.
