Glad it helped

Eventually the charge cycle is meant to complete, and it will say “Finished”, and have a bleeping sound to alert you. The amount of amps it draws decreases near the end as it finishes. However I found to be honest it never really completes like even after 20 hours so I would just turn it off after the amps it is drawing drops to 0.5 / 0.6 (you can see on the charger display). Takes a good few hours if the battery is pretty discharged.

thanks for the additional info!

Hello @BenchRacerRC. Are there any other receivers available? If I find the original & old KR-241FH in some shops around the world, it costs a lot...

That’s great. I’m not an expert but filmed what I could as best I understood it.

yes the driver was only his 1st or 2nd go here so not experienced at racing. needed a lot more practice.

Yes, although I only used it in a Marui Ninja (old car) which was driven gently. But it performed ok.

You have to reverse your throttle on the transmitter.

Mines having the same problem and I’ve tried everything reversing throttle and everything but it just still goes faster in reverse

@@ggg_2414 brushless motor? swap over the outer wires to change the motor spin.

Change the sec wire and servo 1 is to gas 2 it to steer

Yeah I’ve had it running outside since this. It is ok. I think just noisier than modern buggies.

it may be ‘cogging’ if you look that up. basically cheaper sensorless motors aren’t smooth at low rpm. they are better once they get going. so probably not ideal for crawling in particular, as you intentionally want to go slow. Unfortunately you may need a more pricey sensored ecu and motor set up.

@@1_RC thank you so much ok I aill.try changing esc settings and see if it helps but that makes sense

It is a KO Propo esprit 4 so the module is integrated ie not changeable? It has a KR-413FH receiver. If you have converted an earlier model eg an esprit 2 or 3 then you need FrSky XHT ACCST D8 DIY Module from t9hobbysport.com I used a FrSky DHT 2.4ghz DIY Module with a FrSky V8R4-II 2.4Ghz 4 Channel Receiver in my esprit 2 but it no longer available and has changed to the XHT I understand.

Has it worked?

Andrew Deuling no, it will program your throttle points. But not settings. It does have 100% forward, 30-40% in reverse.

Just saying I hear that they’ve got some medium power system so if you full throttle at the start your car won’t flip over, says u can program somewhere in the programming card

Sorry don’t know. But make sure you try reverse twice as the 1st time it just stops the ecu then the next occasion actually makes it go backwards. So you need to go reverse > neutral > reverse to actually go backwards.

@@1_RC you are right! everything works (and used to work). It is the 2nd time that goes backwards! thanks a lot for your prompt reply!

Did you ever figure this out? I’m having the same issue with mine.

@@subarubrett you have to move the throttle to neutral (middle) for 1 sec first, then moving backwards works. In general, to change direction, you stop the throttle to zero first.

Nimh might be knackered if it’s old. I would try different batt if poss. However it’s also poss motor is fubared. Ideally you should swap it with a known good one. Other than that nothing you can do really except check connectors thoroughly

You need to program the ESC to shut off low voltage cut off. You have to buy the program card for it.

@@RobertNES816 why need to shut off voltage cut off? Just for calibration? Thank you for your tip, I have same issue, wil ltry ASAP :) edit: still not working.

Mr Doofa it is painted. I used a plastic primer from Halfords first 2 coats, then other spray paint colours over that. The black plastic as it comes is not really that great - it looks like plastic, so needs to be sprayed

Did you lightly sand the body first before spraying the primer? I’m new to this body painting stuff from Tamiya. The point of the primer is so that the paint can stick to it right?

@@1Stunna2323 You can sand it first, personally I don’t bother, in fact I don’t prime it either!!! I just put the paint straight on to the plastic using very light coats to avoid paint runs, I apply each coat just while the previous coat is still slightly tacky so it sticks better. I then apply decals and job done!!! I might use a bit more care if my models were shelf queens but mine are runners.
