How do I wire a new traxxas transmitter and receiver to my battery and servos?

Question

I have a traxxas 2019 receiver and a Top Qualifier transmitter and 2 traxxas 2018 servos, 1 traxxas battery pack and 2 yellow crystals. From my receiver i have my battery and my two servos in the correct slots. i put in my crystals and try it but nothing happens. please tell me if there is a speacial way to put in the crystals or something else.

Answer 1

I assume both unit use the same xtal. sometimes units use a xmit xtal and a rcv xtal. verify that. obviously if the xtals came with the unit and are not marked xmit and rcv then u are good to go. If they are verify they are in the right unit.

u have things in the right slots - verify that.

the battery is connected properly + to +, - to -. verify that

power is turned on to both units.

xmit controls are centered.

if it still doesn't work, the first thing to verify is power from the battery with the unit on, under load.

then power ON the boards. that is a little harder.

the next thing to do is to see if u can get another xmit to drive the rcv.

and vise-versa.

good luck
