Well, I assembled my Art-Tech P-51 today. Charged the battery, and powered everything up.
Checked the ailerons. Good. Rudder good.
Elevator. Not good. Moves down and not up. And at full down makes a noise and snaps back to neutral before going back to full down. Sounds like a cobntrol rod is binding.
Next, the big one.
Engine. Moved the throttle and no response from the engine.
When powered on prop makes a split second jerk. But no movement with throttle control. I tried reversing the servo with the switch on the transmitter. No luck.
All connectors and electronics I can see look OK.
Hobby-Lobby said to return it. Just wanted to see if anyone had some suggestions that might save me from having to return the thing.
Thanks.
